I've used VPN successfully, but your mileage may vary.
Some do, like maratsade, but your performace may take a big hit.
Hi rsmull,
I see it's your first post here, so welcome to the community! To add to what your fellow community members said, VPN isn't recommended for use on HughesNet. Your speed will be decreased 50%-70%, and whatever you're trying to do over VPN isn't guaranteed to work. For a little more detail: http://support.hughesnet.com/en/faq/internet/can-i-run-vpn-over-hughesnet
Thanks,
