Let the rest of us "Ham's" know what you purchased with your $2000.00. This way we can salivate a little.

You're right, it is possible.
My own Ham radio station was interfering with my computer in a really odd way that's hard to describe. Certain types of video displays would freeze on the screen while I was transmitting.
Turns out I had something called "common-mode RF current" coming from the antenna down the outside of the coax shield and into my shack.
Also, my wifi router was interfering with my radio receiver and inducing a regular, pulsing noise into the lower frequency bands.
If there is interference getting into the HughesNet wifi, it may be curable by placing several ferrite beads on all the cables (coax, network cables, and even the power cable, which already has one on it). But it might take a lot of them.
Oh yes! I did forget to mention that I had tried a couple of ferrite beads. I got the idea surfing around and reading everything I can about RF. I used the wrong kind of ferrite core perhaps. I got the rings that are too big to fit the cord and the coaxial was too stiff to wrap around that cord. But I put it on the power cord and even the Ethernet unaware if it made any sense or not. I could not tell any difference at all. I got a smart meter cover for my power meter since I could not and still cannot use the 2.4ghz spectrum on my modem. The 5ghz has always worked until dark. I feel I need to start with my own hardware which is why I thought there might be some kind of filter that would solve the problem but would be too easy. Thanks again for the ideas and info.
