@Liama8 There are two parts to this question.
Part 1: where does my internet come from ?
Part 2: where does my wifi connectivity come from ?
Part 1: Your internet comes from an internet service provider (ISP). In your case, Hughes.net. As I understand it, this is a satellite service. This is already wireless (unlike a provider that runs a cable to your location) but still enters your home through a modem.
When you sign up for a plan, they will tell you what the incoming speed is. That isn't necessarily the speed you will get from devices connected in various parts of you house.
Part 2: Wifi is distributed from your incoming service location (modem) to other parts of your house (router). This signal can degrade the further you are from the access point, as the signal tries to pass through walls, floors, ductwork etc etc, so that speeds get less and less, the further you are from the access point. This can be improved by placing the modem in a central location, or purchasing range extenders or mesh routing systems that can enhance the signal.
In general, at least at things stand today, you can expect incoming speed from a wireless service to be lower than speed from a wired service (because the signal degrades with distance).
