HELP, I have Hughes Net satellite internet, residential service. Lately it seems to have gotten slower and slower with countless interuptions such as internet explorer unable to show or recent satellite outage etc etc. Dial up weems to have been faster in some instances. Emails and phone calls to their Indian tech services have proved useless. Any suggestions???

One think that most on satellite have found is keeping your computer cleaned on a daily basis if possible or I would say one a week the least. Spyware and adware can slow it down even if you think there is nothing.
A real great online cleaner is online scan using Internet Explorer at

Many have thought there was a problem with Hughes and it is possible but make sure your good at home first because cannot help you there and then see how your speed are.
