Tired and Disgusted with service

I have had service with HughesNet for 4 years now, because it is the only thing available where I live. Throughout this entire time period, the service has been inconsistent and unreliable, to the point where I want to throw my modem into the fireplace.  When you call tech support, they answer that it is raining on the satellite.  For the amount we are forced to pay for service, you would think we would get better service.  Last week I saw an advertisement of theirs on my TV. The entire ad was nothing but lies. My advice to anyone who is thinking about signing up, stop, don't do it, unless you live throwing your money away.
