    I'm having a similar issue.  The company is working on these issues, trying to figure out where they come from. While it may seem nothing is happening, they're actually being proactive.

Same for me. Very slow speeds. We signed up a week ago and what a mistake. The internet is nearly unusable. We do a lot of online business but can't with Hughesnet. We have to resort to using our mobile hotspots for conducting business. Hughesnet is really awful. I have never had such poor service--worse than dial-up on a 386 computer.

You should still be able to get out of your conract with HughesNet at this point.  I think you have a month iirc.
