Better Options Out there!

Do your homework! This service gets very expensive very QUICKLY! We found the new ATT black box is a great solution for rural internet. As long as you get at least 2 bars on your cell phone, that ATT box will work and produce WIFI throughout your house. And, the best part.... 250GB for UNDER WHAT HUGHSNET charges a month!!!! Yes, that is correct.

    Except, most people with Hughesnet traditionally don't have access to such networks, but, I don't see any $250GB option for under $100 a month.

    I see 25GB for $60/month, or 50GB for $100/month.

    Say what? I have AT&T 4G LTE and although it is nice most of the time, never seen a 250 GB plan less than HughesNet. Other than the DirecTV bundled plan which is still not really unlimited ( 22 GB  then throttled) and I'm not tying myself to another third party in the mix.

     

    So, where is this 250 GB plan you speak of?

      Thanks for the heads up, Gabe.

       

      I'm just going to lock this thread since I do agree that people should thoroughly do their research before diving into a 2-year contract.
