You might benefit from learning about
- how satellite internet works
- the limitations of satellite internet and how it differs significantly from terrestrial internet (such as cable, fiber, DSL)
- how latency (both from the satellite and from the internet) affect satellite internet
- how congestion and traffic affect satellite internet
- how your own software, hardware, and configurations affect your service
- how you and your devices use data
- what false advertising actually is (this would show you that no, HN does not engage in it)
- how to have realistic expectations regarding what satellite internet can do
- what the subscriber agreement says, paying particular attention to the disclaimers
- that speed and performance are neither promised not guaranteed
- how little data you can use per day to avoid running out
- and so much more

I am stating that for company that boasts about its service, it has been nothing but horrible for me. And this is before my data cap and ok blue clear skys on a monday morning (for example). There should be no issues, yet there is, every day, no matter the time, no matter the weather.

This reveals that you need to learn more about the limitations of satellite. If you knew how it works and its limitations, you would not make this statement.
- Oh please do explain!
Because I didnt realize i was paying for a service that wasnt meant to work.
