Things to consider before you choose our Virgin Islands Satellite Internet HughesNet VAR Business Internet Solutions:

• You cannot purchase FAP tokens if you go over your monthly data cap, you must instead contact us to purchase more data at full-speed!
• You must pay a $20 per month suspension fee for every month that your account is suspended!
• You cannot sign up and use HughesNet email accounts with VAR services!
• You must pay your monthly service via credit card auto-debit!  (some additional arrangements can be made on a case-by-case basis)
• VAR Packages do offer HughesNet’s VoIP Phone Service, however other VoIP services such as “Basic Talk” and “Magic Jack” seem to work OK!

Pointing a Virgin Islands Satellite Internet HughesNet Gen5 VAR Business Internet Satellite Internet System:

Once you have entered all of the satellite information into the modem, the next page will give you the coordinates for your antenna!

When you have received your SAN and PIN you can run back through the modem’s pointing process and continue on to enter your SAN and PIN, agree to the terms and conditions and bring your system online!

Please be sure to send us your site ID, modem serial number, rate code and date of commissioning once you get your system online!  Failure to do so may result in your account being placed on hold until this information is received!

If you have any questions or get stuck in this process, please contact us for information and support!

If you only use your system a few months of the year, you may prefer to pay our $400 contact cancellation fee which will then allow you to suspend it for 6-months, pay the 7th full month of service and then suspend it another 7-months and so on.

If you will not be needing your service for a month or few, simply contact us to suspend your account so that you aren’t paying full price for service when you are not using it!
