What Is HughesNet?
HughesNet is the high-speed Internet service provider (ISP)
that's available to everyone in the contiguous U.S. with a
clear view of the southern sky. HughesNet uses satellite broadband
technology to give you a super-fast, always-on Internet connection-so
you can enjoy the Internet the way it was meant to be. HughesNet
gets you online instantly, lets you surf and open pages faster
and download files in a fraction of the time it takes a dial-up
modem.
How does HughesNet
work?
HughesNet delivers high-speed wireless Internet over satellite-not
over your telephone line-so you can surf and talk at the same
time. A certified HughesNet installer will connect your computer
to a satellite broadband modem and link it to a satellite
dish (antenna). The satellite dish sends and receives information
(i.e., email, Web pages, files) over the Internet and delivers
it your computer almost instantly!
