Well about 8 months ago I had a service called Hughesnet.  It was HORRIBLE service, poor tech support by non english speaking employees and 90 bucks a month and I could only download 70 meg a day or my service was slowed to below dial-up speeds. i HAD NO CHOICE UNTILL VERIZON SAVED THE DAY! My advice to anyone thinking  of using hughesnet to JUST SAY NO! and stick to dial-up intil dsl is in your area.
