I have excellent speeds during bonus time. I guess no one on my beam uses download managers.

Hughesnet tech told us that the reason Internet is slow during bonus time is because many customers use download management software to download while they sleep. Makes sense.
That's definitely true. The impact also can, and often does, vary from beam to beam and gateway to gateway. Mine tends to slow down right around 2:00AM, but only for about a half hour or so, then it's right back up to "full" speed, for the most part.
