I know this is an old post, but I have been searching to find out what the MotoSat F1 Dish monthly GB is for the regular service as I am looking at replacing it with a Verizon 5GB MiFi for my internet service and want to make sure that it is at least the same GB or more before making the switch.
Thanks

Hughes service comes in different flavors, however for around $80 a month, you have a daily download limit stated to be 425MB. No monthly limit. The 5GB monthly on Verizon is about 1/3 of that, but can be reached in less than a day of heavy usage.

And, don't forget StarBand. The allocation is weekly, with the top plan having a 4 GB down and 1 GB up weekly limit.

If you have service now, you can look in the modem itself and tell what the daily is. Most of us with Datastorms are on 425MB per day, which is 12.75GB per 30-day month, but that ignores the 5 hours per night of unlimited. It is possible to get many, many GB more during that period if you are a heavy downloader.
