Modern consumer grade satellite Internet service is typically provided to users through geostationary satellites that can offer high data speeds.

Advantages

Disadvantages
Expenses - installation and monthly bills
Slow speeds - due to long distance between the two
Limits - a provider may limit the amount of access a customer has per month
Weather - poor weather can impact the connection negatively ]]> 2018-05-03 10:38:11 UTC https://padlet.com/samhutley43/jlux0ce4f5ij/wish/257583573 samhutley43 https://padlet.com/samhutley43/jlux0ce4f5ij/wish/257583603 2018-05-03 10:38:24 UTC https://padlet.com/samhutley43/jlux0ce4f5ij/wish/257583603
