Anymore The Cloud is the Internet and the Internet is The Cloud.........it's all evil I say, just evil.
Seriously though, one company gobbling up the majority of the Internet backbone on the civilian side seems like a huge national security risk to me. I'm declaring a National Emergency!

I think maybe it's time to move into an empty missle silo in Wyoming and just wait it out. I'm sure it won't be long now...
Well I have tried to discuss this with Hughes Technical Support and ended up with their Home Net (which appears to be outsourced) which wanted to charge me a service plan to work with me since the Service was fine and I would need help with my home network.
Feelings aside, I am an IT network engineer that configures routers, etc. So when I tried to share with them pings, traceroutes and more it gets frustrating ... they do not think it is a HughesNet problem so I am not sure this is going to get fixed .....
I recommend you try sending an email to tech support. I suspect maybe it has a better chance of ending up on someone's desk that has a bit more knowledge than the script-following techs on the phone.
At any rate, I complained a couple of times via email, and two things of note happened as a result: 1) they acknowledged there was a problem and that their engineers were working on it (maybe - maybe not); and 2) I received $30 credit on my bill for 6 months - not the solution I was looking for, but better than nothing.
