[QUOTE="kamicollo, post: 2090321, member: 24608"] I used to have Hughes net. I paid them around 280 to get out of contract with them. it was TERRIBLE. I said that I would go without internet before ever going back to a satellite internet. If your kids play PS3 then you dont have a prayer with satellite. I am on a company called Omega 1 but they are a western Oklahoma company. It is a wireless internet that get its bandwith from AT&T. its not great but it works. I would think that Pioneer would be a far superior product vs any satellite internet. Someone smarter than me can do the math or might know it off hand. but on satellite the fastest possible ping you can have is like 2.4 seconds. For online games (if you could connect to them) that is impossible. Hughesnet had a daily bandwith allowance that you would exceed in 15 minutes on YouTube. Wildblue I believe is a monthly but it really isnt very much if I recall right. I would switch to pioneer if I could get a phone at my house and they could provide service through it, but alas they can not. [/QUOTE]
