Nope.
Then, to help the Hughesnet Customer Service Reps get a head start on your speed concerns, you should create a testmy.net account and perform 3-5 tests during different parts of the day. Then share the account results link with us here.
Please keep in mind that Hughesnet will only accept testmy.net and the official Hughesnet speed test results. Tests from other sites like speedtest.net are not accepted due to the compression technologies and latency that satellite deploys.
Most important points to remember during this test:
-do the tests while directly connected to the HughesNet modem with a LAN cable (NO third party Router or Wireless devices can be used)
-use the 25MB size download test file ONLY
-If testing upload instead of download, you must use a 4MB size upload test file
-space each test at least 5 minutes apart
-post your results URL here, it may look something like http://testmy.net/quickstats/C0RR0SIVE
For a more in depth guide on running the tests, please visit: http://customer.kb.hughesnet.com/Pages/7001.aspx
The Reps are on M-F from approximately 8AM to 5PM Eastern. They will be the ones to address your speed issues, but they will need these tests to do so.

They already have days worth of tests from their speed tests and testmy.net. I am not repeating it another 100-200 times. I don't have time throughout the week to test different times during the day since I'm at work. Hughesnet needs to send a technician out to trouble shoot this issue instead of giving me the run around.

Hughesnet first needs to find out if it is a issue on your end or there end. If it is on there end. It will due no good to send a tech out. Let the Engineers do there thing. They are good. Just takes a little bit.

Please post your testmy.net Results URL so those test results can be viewed.
Also, as mentioned, they are not going to send out a tech unless it's determined that a tech visit is needed.
