GabeUwrote: Wudrest In addition, when you choose every one of your posts as solutions to your topic, not only is it an insult to those who actually provide solutions, it throws other customers off when they are searching for solutions to their issues. LizAmandaMight it be a good idea to completely close this thread? Thanks you have been most helpful... NOT Re: More Slow 5 Gen download speeds This is normal operation from HughesNet. It is so slow and then they start making you do tricks with YOUR equipment like it is your fault that you have slow internet. Buffering is normal for Hughesnet. I am telling everyone I know that Hughes.Net is SLOW. Maybe they won't sign the contract. Re: Community. Service. From GabeU Re: Community. Service. Why would anyone even bother to help you at this point? When someone actually does to try help you, as in asking questions and steps to be performed to begin troubleshooting your issue, you insultthem. You ask for help and then spit in the face of the first person that attempts to do so. So, again, I ask, and this is a rhetorical question that doesn't really require your answer, why would anyone even bother to try to help you? You might want to think about that. From Wudrest I still have not figured out why you are trouble shooting for HughesNet. Have you ever thought that what you do is insulting? Why should it require a bunch of tricks to get the internet? You act like I have never had internet before now. I know what good service is. It is not HughesNet!!!! I see your name on here a lot. I am not the first to gripe about the lack of service. I am sure you have noticed. I have been on 5 different providers in the past 2 weeks and NONE of them require me to adjust my equipment. All of them I could watch a video without buffering. So I ask again, have you ever thought that you implying that what is wrong with my internet conection is the setting on my equipment so offensive to me. This whole site is rhetorical. No one cares. They know you are locked in to the contract. In their adds that describe how megafast it is. In the contract it plainly says that no speeds are guarenteed. They know they are conning people with a load of it. If I can help just one person to not sign that blasted contract then it is worth all of this wasted time. Re: Community. Service. Ref Number: 108593826 From a while back that no one ever responded to. Re: Community. Service. Griping about it on here doen't work either. I thought / hoped it might. All you will get are reply post from people that "are not MODS" to sugest you do a bunch of smoke and mirror tricks like "please try either pausing or turning OFF the Video Data Saver" "please try a device that is directly connected to the modem with a LAN cable to see if there is any difference. " turn off your router, take some speed tests, reboot your system etc. I know all I have to do is go into town with my iPad and download a bunch of stuff to watch on a providers system that is interested in service for their community. Not HughesNet. Wish I had never heard of this company. Re: Community. Service. That doesn't work either.

My wife has called but no results other than increasing my data. I am positive that the technology exists to get internet in the woods of rural AR. But HughesNet has not shown me they know how faster than dialup speeds. Constant buffering. Only one more year of my contract. Today I am reconnecting to my old internet provider. I don’t live in the house much. Once a week or so. I will just use that as my download day where I will have something to watch when I return to my HughesNet provider. Re: Community. Service. Community service is when you have to pay back to the community for the bad you have done. I did a bad thing. I signed a contract with HughesNet. Now I have to pay for something I did. I just want to say to my community. .. don’t do it. Only for a year more do I have to pay for what I have done. About $60 a month. Re: Community. Service. I don’t really understand why you are trouble shooting for HughesNet? I don’t have to turn off stuff with a real internet provider.
