Your Hughesnet Satellite Systems is available ANYWHERE in the United States. Highspeed Internet Access is now available to anyone - no matter where you live!
Why does the service slow down when used in conjunction with a VPN?
HughesNet® uses sophisticated acceleration techniques to enable high-speed performance over satellite. These acceleration techniques require access to data packet header information, which is blocked when IPSec-based VPNs are used. These VPNs encrypt the data and create a secure tunnel through the HughesNet network. The encrypted data cannot be processed by HughesNet's acceleration techniques, therefore resulting in slower performance.
