Ok, I am traveling now, but I had run the tests from my laptop on wifi previously, about 6 inches from the Hughes Modem. Let me check the procedure later and see if I can upload those according to the process suggested (e.g. download etc.)

The procedure I was told I had to use says this: "do the tests while directly connected to the HughesNet modem with a LAN cable (wifi must be disabled*, NO third party Router or Wireless devices can be used for testing)" To me, that is saying find a PC with an actual ethernet adapter, turn off wifi, attach it to the Hughesnet Modem with a cable. That's tough for me.

I ran the test a few times. Download speeds seemed fine, upload low, and latency was horrible (averaging 1.5s). I travel a lot, have not had a chance to do it connecting directly to the Hughesnet modem (no wifi) as my laptop does not have an Ethernet connection. My phone does not have an Ethernet connection either.

When I work from home, all my work apps have very, very slow response times. In addition, I find that I use up my 20GB of data in 2-3 days and have to buy tokens. It cost me something like $250 to work from this location for three weeks in May. When I test hte latency, the average seems to be somewhere around 1000MS+, which most of the speedtest sites rate as horrible. My suspicion is that the high latency is causing a lot of retransmissions for the work apps and eating up all the bandwidth. In any case, I cannot afford $250 a month to work from this location. Previously I would try to work at offsite locations (e.g. Starbucks in town) or use my Verizon phone as a hotspot (also pretty miserable). I'm trying to run the speedtests, but I keep getting redirected to a page trying to get me to install a new browser, which seems like BS. i need to go out now, will try again later.
