HughesNet is a good company, and the reps here are very helpful (they stand head and shoulders above reps from other companies).
I think though that even in the area where you live, things will change and evolve. And you can still become active in asking your representatives to bring more broadband to the area.
What Linux distro do you have?
I use Mint 20 . Been on Linux for 10+ years, Mint has over 70,000 apps, the OS too all free. With wine, you can use windows apps, and dual boot os , I just use Mint, Just no comparison for what I need , just the basics. The recovery act brought 2 fiber optic cable near me, then a private company-Conifer set up towers for wifi service, but my location blocks negates my ability to use it. Living in a canyon, I do have ATT cell service, but that would be expensive, plus the allowances, and throttling is also are an issue for my neighbor. They know about Hughes, and agree it would be better, but won't use them for broadband. Hughes works for me, I'm very satisfied. I remember 12mps dial-up, so I'm living large now :)
I have Mint installed on one device. It's pretty cool.
