Hughsnet Bonus Data Plan

Question

Is it true that Hughesnet Bonus Data Plan between 2 am and 8 am is now unlimited? &nbsp;It used to be restricted to 50 GB.

Given that the satellite's broadband is limited, I doubt that very much.

I called Hughesnet and they confirmed their Bonus Data between 2am and 8am is unlimited.

Depends on the definition of unlimited. HN's data has always been unlimited, in the sense that they won't cut you off when you run out of your priority data, that is, the data package you pay for. When you run out of that, you can continue using the internet, but at very slow speeds.

Hopefully Remy or a Damian can clarify this point for everybody.

Basically, it's like it's always been. They don't cut you off, but the speeds are slower, especially during prime time.&nbsp; From https://legal.hughesnet.com/node/786Service Features and ConditionsAll Service Plans feature Priority Data and unlimited Standard Data. Each Hughesnet service plan (“Service Plan”) comes with an amount of Priority Data that may be downloaded or uploaded at Service Plan speeds within a billing cycle (“Priority Data”).&nbsp;If a subscriber uses all of their Priority Data during a billing cycle, he or she can continue using the Service using unlimited Standard Data until their Priority Data resets. Standard Data is prioritized behind Priority Data, which means that during high traffic periods, subscribers using Standard Data may experience slower speeds, which will lead to web sites responding and loading more slowly and certain activities such as video streaming or large downloads/uploads being significantly impacted.&nbsp;&nbsp;
