Gen5 - Equipment Lease Vs. Buy considerations
Can anyone tell me where I can find more details on the costs & benefits of whether to opt for equipment leasing or equipment purchase? I tried to find information starting at the Get Started page (...

Does that price include installation or is there an additional installation fee> I've noticed the fine print on all recent Gen 5 offers says, "*Free standard installation applies to new Lease subscribers only. Not valid with Purchase option. Limited-time offer."

I've just completed my Gen5 upgrade order. Terms and conditions vary depending upon your circumstances. Being a customer of HughesNet since 2003 I was given a sort of VIP status/offer. Apparently, the undiscounted equipment purchase price at this time is $449.98. I was afforded a $100 discount which brought my price down to the level you quoted. Any additional installation and activation fees were also waived. Apparently the undiscounted activation fee is $99 (I don't know what the undiscounted installation fees are).
