    The bars on your phone are only for your Verizon service.  They don't indicate anything with HughesNet.

So my modem is sitting right on the top of my computer, under my desk, when I walk in the house my Iphone switches over to the Huges net, while sitting in my office right in front of the modem I have 1 sometimes 2 bars on my phone. I have Verizon for cell service and the huges Net is better than Verizon based upon me living in rural Northern Wisconsin. I thought about ordering the WiFi booster or I am doing something else wrong.
