Id like to use HughesNet for telephone service using VoiP. Can I?
At this point in time, Voice Over IP services through the HughesNet satellite is in its infancy. The problem is in the latency (time delay) going all the way to outer space and back. While you are downloading at a high speed, your upload speed (when YOU are doing the talking) is slow enough to cause more trouble than it’s worth. As upload speeds increase in the future, this may then become practical.
