Buffering Slow Internet and E-mail times out
I have been having issues with Hughes net since I had it installed in December of 2018. Slow Internet, Facebook will partially load then the pictures and videos will start loading one by one and you ...
Thank you for bringing this to my attention. If you are willing to try HTS again, please call 866-347-3292 and provide them with the updated case number I just messaged you, as I have now updated the case notes to ensure the call will be free of charge next time. I do apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Also, I see you had mentioned termination earlier. If this is the step you would like to take instead, I can assist you with the process. Please private message me if this is your decision.

If they run diagnostics on their end and on your end and find nothing wrong, it may be said they've done their due diligence, so you may be found liable for contract termination. They have also asked you to take further steps on your end and you have declined, so that is also a strike against you.
It seems the troubleshooting may be stalled since you did not wish to work with Home Tech Support. The Hughesnet people investigated your issue extensively and found no speed problems on their end or on your end, so they need you to do more work on your end to determine what may be causing the problems you see -- may be latency, perhaps, or something else. Ball's in your court now, and until you do what you asked you to do, they will likely not continue to investigate the issue, but you could always send a private message to Damian and ask for an update.

I shouldn't have to pay anything since my Internet hasn't been unable since it was installed.
I'm having to use the hot spot in town just to be able to send this and check my e-mail.

why should I have to pay almost $200 to HTS when I was told it would be free and everytime I call tech support I always get told something different.
Think it would also help to stick to only one topic thread as it tends to get confusing when a mod or admin has to look in two places, especially if there's a lot of people to respond to.
Maybe the mods could consolidate the threads? It does make the whole process more organised.
I guess my previous topic "Buffering Slow Internet and E-mail times out" has been locked or something since I can't post to it. I haven't had usable Internet for over 3 weeks and today I have Internet and so far it is fast like it is supposed to be, What happened? Nothing has changed on my end. I have been pulling my hair out since December with slow Internet, pages not loading and not being able to get my e-mail and having to go find wireless in town to get my e-mail and every test I did said the download speed was always above 20 Mbps but it acted like dial up. I guess i'll see how long this lasts before it goes out again.
This thread was initially closed since there was no response to the private message I had sent you. I have now merged your current post and re-opened your last thread to keep things consolidated. I am glad to hear your service appears to be faster now. Nothing has changed on our side either, as your modems speeds have remained in the same range, acording to our diagnostics, since May. Please let me know if you ever experience a slow down again and I will continue the troubleshooting process.
