Satellite TV and Internet
For many years, high-speed Internet service was difficult to obtain in many residential communities. Internet service consists of Hughes.net satellite Internet, or ViaSat. Both are available independently and through a Dish or DirectTV, subscription.
I was reluctant to get satellite Internet due to concerns about signal interference, download times, and occasional outages. However, I succumbed in 2021 and ordered satellite service for the first time from Dish, (888) 434-0112.
The satellite company that installed the service was a third-party vendor from Kilmarnock. The owner talked me into ordering Viasat with the Dish subscription.
Unfortunately, the satellite sat on my roof for several months without a connection into the house. The company drew a monthly fee from my debit card as if I was an active user. I still haven’t gotten my refund for the amount. This is why I don't recommend Viasat.
I now have HughesNet, (844) 737-2700, through Dish. I am happy with my Internet service at $66 per month.
