What wireless router would you recommend?
Since every Hughesnet member has their own distinct home setup, we cannot provide a single recommendation that would apply to all our members. For customers living in a small home, a low-end device might be all they need. For customers living in a 3,000 square-foot, multi-story house, they will likely need the signal strength provided by higher-end devices.
