Gen5 since late March.....
One would think with only 10GB to 50GB at full speed of data, anyone that is doing HD that much or use this many contraptions would bottom out in mear days for data and they would no longer be that bottleneck as as they FAP out. I doubt that many would pay big fees for tokens. I am sure it is part of it though as you say. Maybe Hughes should cut off any HD and only allow SD going foreward, unless they have some way to add this capacity.
In such a short time since I been on Gen 5 (late September) it went from only afternoon to late evening slow-down to 24/7 slowdown to 200K speeds. I have not see much faster for a bit now.
So either more people have been added or whatever is broken has broken more. <grin>
Either way, 200K speeds today have been a rough one for sure but I been managing. Just basic emails, web work, and no streaming stuff other than a couple 144p vids on Youtube.

If it were me, I would not only find a way to block HD streaming, I would block the ports of technologies that are crippling the system so they wouldn't work at all.
Edit: Have you noticed all the people saying they can't stream anymore, their system is slow and buffering, and they've ran out of data in only a couple of days? It's no coincidence to me...
