Satellite Internet Service from the Company that Invented It
Hughes sets the standard for satellite internet and continues to innovate with the JUPITERTM network of high-capacity satellites.
At Hughes, we are committed to connecting the unconnected through innovative technologies that make internet access faster, easier and more affordable. Since 1996, when our engineers reduced file download times from an hour to 90 seconds using satellite connectivity, we have continued to advance satellite internet technology.
Today, our top-rated Hughesnet® service connects rural households across the Americas. Our industry‑leading JUPITER™ System powers satellite ground networks for service providers and governments worldwide. These organizations rely on JUPITER technology to deliver reliable connectivity to communities that would otherwise remain offline.
Key achievements include:
- Building a powerful high‑throughput Ka‑band satellite constellation across the Americas
- Expanding broadband availability across the U.S., becoming the first satellite provider to offer coverage nationwide
- Connecting previously unserved communities in Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico and Peru
- Increasing customer value with fast speeds, unlimited data* and Whole Home Wi‑Fi
