Where ever you go take the Internet with you. There are several packages available and currently, it is working great in our RV parked in a rural area.

this is a service, not a product. the service has many products to receive the service. please read the guidelines about submitting a product over a service or business.
Oh boy, I thought I read it. Eh, I'll let you guys do your thing.
By the way, the site is very attractive.
we just go on the guidelines, yeah it's gotta be a product, please, do come back and try again, every day, as many hunts as you like, but one will get the upvote as long as it gets in the top 100 -- yeah the site is pretty right? nice and minimal! :)
It's very nice looking and clean.
hey please do come back, i just wanted to check back in with you. we would love to see you on the platform again ;)
I think with T Mobile there are certain plans where you can use your phone as an unlimited hotspot but it might only be at 3G speed.
Hello, I am currently using t-mobile tethered to my CPU at 4lte and get 100gb a month for 110 US a month. That is from a business account. I have complained to them for the last five years and finally got satisfaction. I have had this service now for two years and have used it all over the North America. With that said, it is still a long way away from a fixed line internet service that most people have strung to there homes. Currently I am not traveling but still use this service because I am in rural PA where there is no legitimate data service outside of satellite.
Am I happy with the service, yes.
Do they cut you off once data is used up, no. (still get data but at a old modem speed)
Going on my tenth year with them, I am happy..but I want more bandwidth! lol.
If you were OK with slower speeds they have
"Mobile hotspot data included.
Keep all your devices connected at max 3G speeds." at only $40 each for 4 lines.

I might do it once Comcast screws me over.
I did have mobile wifi at only $20 a month for a while but the service got continued. :( It worked awesome and was better than my Comcast service plus it was mobile It was 4G community.
@whatsup,
Once Google tried Google Balloons top of my country and I think it had some technical difficulties! Anyway I wish your post will win the round! But personally I have doubts about SH projects! Copying existing projects I don't wanna category as a Hunt! Innovation should be there!
Cheers~
Well, I collected my airdrop tokens so I thought I should give their site a try. It is very nice looking.
@whatsup,
Yeah it looks good, but the concept has a lot to change! It's better if they start hunt softwares than such hardwares! It's good to hear you could collect their tokens! Hope they might be at SMT!
Cheers~

Or not... Sorry...
I wanted to point out that for rural America, there is getting to be a widespread availability of mobile internet providers, such as through TMobile, Verizon, AT&T, who will probably provide much better service in the same areas for much cheaper. There are also dedicated mobile internet providers that are starting to pop up in a lot of rural areas that also provide much better service at better prices. If you're in rural America, as I am, do your due diligence. Hughes net may be an option, but certainly not the only option for rural America, as I have come to find out, as I live in the boonies where no cable/fiber/DSL is anywhere close, yet I get great speeds and much less latency with both Verizon and TMobile than what I had with Hughes net (albeit I was with Hughes net about 2.5 years ago). Mainly, I wanted to point out that if you live in a very rural area, don't give up hope and just sign on with Hughes net as I did. Check out all your mobile options and go to a couple of broadband provider websites and check out your options. Best of luck.
Yeah the unlimited data on the main providers is just so great. I drive all over and can browse as much as I want on my phone. But if you want a bigger screen or do stuff on your laptop the hotspot still sucks.
You can use your phone as a laptop with things like Roku or a smart TV and a bluetooth mouse and keyboard but the screen does display a little different on the TV since it's your phone screen.
yeah I know it drives me nuts. I've noticed the interconnect between different devices like laptops, tvs, tablets, etc. is still wonky even after all these years...
Oh well, I've got plenty of time to figure out what to do with my truck. I do so badly want a tv in it though... a ps4 too probably...
It sure does!
I was planing on getting this when I live off grid

As a trucker I'm glad to hear about this. 👍
Is it affordable for watching Netflix and browsing the interwebs?
For mobile data it is fast and gives quite a bit of data.
Looked into similar service sometime back..pricey as heck...for this one price isn't so easy to find !!
very cool and nice to see you on SH! thought a person could only post on steemhunt.com to post? so many rules there 😆 i left 🤣🤣
I don't know if I used it right. .. LOL, they are air dropping tokens and I went to claim mine. While I was there, I thought I would check out their site.
ahhahah im dying here, they might flag you or some weird quality control. they send an alert 🤣😂🤣😂
please tell the hunter "that's enough for your area. If it's in the interior of our village, just a lot of packages are useless. Because network transmitters don't exist yet." save man deepening in the world.

Yep, because it's the only option, which explain why the price tag is extremely high! Just another crooked greedy company ripping off poor customers who have no choices. And that folks, is sad truth! The data cap of bandwidth is what makes it a very bad deal! It's stupid to have data cap! Very stupid! If you are new at this stuff and you are just now finding out there is Internet for you in the area that you can't get high speed Internet, trust me, you don't want this service, it will make you mad as hell and want to throw out your modem on the driveway! You will never get 25 mbps speed! It's a lied! Trust me I've been there before, had it and it's all a lie! You get stuck with contract and end up with only 5 mbps you might get lucky with 8 mbps if on a clear day. This shitty service is only good for checking your email. That's about it! NOT WORTH YOUR MONEY!
Uhh, sorry to debunk ya on the gaming, but RTS, RPG, MMORPG work fine on Hughesnet Gen5. But I will agree on the fact that FPS games can NEVER be played on Satellite, even proposed LEO satellite wont be tolerable for that.
I have Hughes as well, though the Gen5 isn't available in my area, so it's Gen4 for me. It works well though so I have no complaints. Glad to hear you're free of the hotspot...that can be a pain sometimes lol
I've been using the Verizon jetpack with few issues, but haven't gone past Arkansas with it. What's the monthly fees?
$59 ish they have different packages for different areas.
nice
you are doing good work keep it up
