I looked at my Hughesnet usage chart this morning because I knew that I had ran pass 6:00 AM a couple of days ago on a large download. Sure enought there was a 65MB download listed between 6:00 AM and 7:00 AM in blue. I saw that the unlimited bandwith that does't count toward your FAP, which is highlighted in blue, now runs from 2:00 AM to 7:00 AM EST instead of the old 3:00 AM to 6:00 AM EST. I called Tech support and they confirmed that the new time frame is 2:00 AM to 7:00 AM even though they have not changed the written part of their FAP yet. A lot better to get up at 6:00 AM than 5:00 AM for a large download !!

Not good enough. They need at least 12 hours of unlimited FAP before I will become a customer. I could do all the heavy stuff during those 12 hours while doing the light duty stuff during the unlimited periods. This is one thing that is going to hold satellite broadband back more and more. The demand is increasing more and more for additional bandwidth yet the limit is the same. I thought a few years ago it was unlimited from midnight to 6 AM so it is still in their favor.
