I just started service with Hughes 5 days ago....buffering terrible...cannot watch any videos on my TV...I have called Hughes 5 times in four days....each tech does a bunch of stuff and then says it is fixed.... I asked to speak to an supervisor...I told this person that I wanted to cancel Hughes...she said if I do I will be charged $400.00 early cancellation...even though it is a poor system at their end....she then proceeded to do some things to the equipment....she said that if their are winds or rains this will interfere with the video downloading...well yes I do live in Washington State....where it does rain in the winter !!! given that...she did some adjustments and this help with the problem....I still cannot get any on demand selections without terrible buffering....even when I leave it to continue downloading and come back...the same thing happens....so I am left with an less then adequate Hughes Net....oh and did I mention....the installer was over an 1hour late....when he did show....put the Hugfhes Dish right on top of my Dish...(Dish TV) when I told him that I could not use the Dish....he told me that he did not have any equipment to fix it...so I called Dish and they came out the next day and moved their dish ....telling me that the Hufghes net tech should have known better !! So there it is....I am a senior citizen and caregiver to my senior husband who has Cancer and Dementia....believe me this whole stuff is so exhausting..I should have known better and left my orginal systems in place
