Hughes Successfully Launches High-throughput Satellite
Setting the stage for the next generation of HughesNet Gen5 satellite Internet service

You'll get a new radio and modem, and a repoint to the Gen5 satellite, which is just a couple of degrees west of where your dish is pointed now. The dish and its mount should be OK as is, but the Technician will change out the arm in front to be compatible with the new radio.
If you're on SpaceWay now, you're going to love Gen5.
Call a local Retailer to place your upgrade order: https://www.hughesnet.com/get-started/how-to-buy/find-dealer :)
Thanks! We are on Spaceway now, I think, and service is slow, slow, slow and uploads take all day. I have to buy more data every couple of months. Last month I had to buy $75 worth because of the huge Microsoft updates. We are NOT happy! AT&T is bringing wireless Internet to two counties where I live that will cover 400,000 homes and businesses that currently are so rural and remote that most are forced to use Hughes. We are trying to decide if upgrading to Gen5 will be better or not. We don't know much about AT&T Wireless. I'll call the number you provided since I will be able to talk to a local person hopefully rather than somebody at Hughes.
