Re: FAP Limits Lowered?
ProPlus is still the same 425MB, It seems to be that the change is for spaceway III only, at this time.

Hughesnet has been a nightmare to deal with. I keep passing my FAP limit and then I can't get on to finish my online work for the day. I spoke to their technical support and I got a "kind" indian man on the phone and couldn't understand most of what he was trying to explain to me. I spent about an hour on the phone listening to him read his instruction manual to me and I almost lost my mind. This type of service sucks and shouldn't be legal. I heard that the reason the FAP limit is there is because they have a limited number of satelites and they're trying to add on more and more customers to rip off. Why do all of you use hughes? The reason i do is because I'm out in the middle of nowhere and can't get cable or dsl. Is it the same for you guys? |

Yes, I am in the middle of nowhere myself. I have heard that there is wireless less than 2 months away. I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed. To be honest, I hate hughesnet. |

They can lower it to 1mb per day if they want, you just have the right to end services with no termination fee. |

| Actually they can't. What you got when you signed the contract is what you should always get, they can't alter or change it further down the road by law.
So if you signed up for a 375 MB threshhold and 1 megabit download speed, you should always get that since you would technically be exempt from the new limits as you signed up before they went in effect.
If Hughes is ignoring this, talk to the consumer protection division, FCC, FTC, and your Attorney General. They should not be able to do this
