HughesNet used for commutation during the San Diego Fires
The recent fire disaster at California has affected a major area of San
Diego. Orange County and Malibu was also severely affected. The fire had
destroyed many houses, affected the power supply and has almost destroyed the
entire telecommunication services. There was no form of communication for either
the business or the families. And to restore all these communication it will
take numerous weeks for the service provider. But for HughesNet Satellite
Internet services, the situation was not so bad.
It was a blessing in disguise for many people staying in the interiors. They
were previously denied broadband service by many internet service providers. But
these were all based upon dial-up, DSL and broadband technology. HughesNet on
the other hand is a totally satellite based Internet service. All subscribers
can have hassle free Internet connectivity if they use the HughesNet Satellite Internet connection. They could communicate with their friends and relatives
with ease. The situation became more vivid when the emergency vehicles and
trucks used this technology with the assistance of HughesNet. The use of this
technology was also noticed during Hurricane Katrina, Wilma and Rita and also
during the tragic 9/11. Whenever one needs emergency communication, HughesNet is
always at service. It has proved itself a very effective communication tool in
all kinds of national and international disaster management scenarios.
Another positive aspect of this service is its mobility. It is easily
transportable and can be used at the remotest areas with its self-pointing
antenna structure. Also, its bandwidth can be scaled as per the requirement of
the job and budget. Its fast deployable technology is flexible to meet any
requirement of a state, a country or the world at large. All these superior
capability of HughesNet has proved very effective in fighting the disaster of
the San Diego fire. The satellite solution of HughesNet is an extremely
effective tool for those who desire hassle free internet service or require a
back up internet support system. The service offered is also exemplary with
great rates for both home and business users. The best part is of course the
speed which can go up to 2.0 Mbps and this is maintained even during disasters.
The service was up to the mark and never failed in providing continuous
communication during the catastrophe. HughesNet has a separate service line
called as Continuity of Operations Solutions (COOP) which offers specialized
services during an emergency. There are many Government departments and private
emergency response teams which use HughesNet solutions during an emergency. The
services are supported by 24/7 online and telephone support teams. Emergency
vehicles are fitted with the HughesNet mobile Satellite dishes helping to
communicate effectively from the disaster sites. This helps in removing the
communication barricade that is so common during an emergency.
The wide array of services has pushed up the HughesNet customer base across
the globe. The number of subscribers has gone up to more than 27 million. And
the lucky few were in San Diego and have enjoyed hassle free Internet Service
