| Dish is bigger than you can see but this is view from front of garage. |

| DirecTV dish is smaller and creating a shadow, Hughes Net is second dish with longer "shaft". I think maybe DirecTV dish has "size" issues now! LOL |

Update us on your service in a few months and let me know if Hughes Net is reliable.
I'd still rather have Verizon FiOS, but I get cards in the mail saying that Hughes Net services our area too.
Maria after install we had a violent thunderstorm on Friday, satellite went out but Internet did not. First test passed with flying colors but I still miss Road Runner from Time Warner, it is unlimited streaming Internet service and faster but that is the price of rural living.
I live in an urban area so I'm with AT&T Uverse for internet and tv too....it's okay but expensive...sigh...sure would be nice to find an affordable alternative - they all start out with a discount but once the time period's up...they gouge the heck out of you....lol...Good luck with your new provider.
Wow. I had no idea you were having so much trouble! I don't have the best of luck with WiFi. I recently got an iPad and decided to pay for the cellualar data plan to make sure I can get access. Glad to hear things are better. I'm thinking of getting a new iPhone myself. I'm still using 3G and there's no light for night photos and I can't take videos...pluss the internet is slow as heck, sometimes!
Maria do I ever hear you about the expense, our bills since we had to move to the area we are not reflect savings on electricity and water consumption but the AT&T bill for cell and Internet more than makes up for it that is for sure. Uverse is only a dream as we never intend to live inside city limits again, as we have not done so for 12 years and we love our little private plot of land!
June, we have a HUGE problem with "line of sight", between the trees and the topography of the land all the providers in our area that have towers set up to broadcast cannot reach us.
Last resort was either Hughes Net or one other satellite company that everyone says is horrible on service and reception both so we went with HN.
First thunderstorm with high winds and lots of wind came through day after install and Internet worked fine, we will see how it goes in future.
