    Where do I point to for HughesNet?

    Either take the training and get certified or get a certified tech out there. Aligning a two way dish is nothing like a C band or FTA. More to it than just pointing to a satellite.

    Starband C-band Dish?

    Bandwidth throttling on Hughes is minor compared to Wildblue. It is only slowed for a day on Hughes. Wildblue is for thirty days. Dealing with starband just sucks. When I am trying to deal with them they treat you like you are lower on the food chain than them.
