HughesNet
Satellite Internet Service Provider for North America. They have 100% coverage of the continental United States. HughesNet’s Consumer service is available in the 48 contiguous US states, Canada, and Puerto Rico.
Hughes Net is a large, well-established company that has not only been involved in the early days of Satellite technology, is also the leader in Internet satellite service. They are not inexpensive when compared to urban-based broadband providers, but at only $10 more a month than Wild Blue, they are definitely competitive for the Satellite Internet market. That extra $10 buys you real technical support from qualified staff and the assurance that the company you are dealing with will still exist tomorrow.

Wild Blue
Satellite Internet Service Provider for North America (most areas). They do not have 100% coverage of the United States.
This satellite ISP offers what are likely the lowest rates available among satellite providers today. However, they provide poor customer service and do not employee enough qualified technicians to support their infrastructure and customers.
