I looked briefly at Huges Net, but the down side to them is they cap your overall monthly consumption which can be a problem if you are a heavy user. From a price standpoint they aren't terribly competitive either, so clearly they are not necessarily interested in going head to head price wise with hard line cable/DSL carriers.

Can't comment on their service as a whole as I have never used it. I do however had DirecTV and it can be sensitive as Dan says to weather conditions. Heavy duty downpours, thunderheads or snow squalls can interfere with your signal.
