Comparing Satellite Internet for RVs
While investigating how we would get the Internet into our laptops and keep the coffers filled, I looked at multiple satellite Internet service providers. Here’s a chart to help you compare these services as well as some information below to fill in any blanks.
HughesNet | WildBlue | Dish Network | |
---|---|---|---|
Equipment Cost | $199.99 | $249 | $199 |
Monthly Service Cost | $69.99 | $69.95 | $69.95 |
Installation Fee | $599.99 | Free | Free |
Download/Upload Speed | 1.1Mbps/200kbps | 1Mbps/200kbps | 1Mbps/200kbps |
It seems as though WildBlue and Dish Network are actually running the same systems and service. There are plenty of other service providers out there, but they’re charging twice as much as these guys and for unbelievably lower service plans.
