[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 484689, member: 24285"] + Looked up Exede [I]"[COLOR=#545454][FONT=arial]Affordable, high speed broadband satellite internet anywhere in the U.S." [/FONT][/COLOR][/I][FONT=arial, sans-serif][SIZE=2][COLOR=#545454]I'm only about eight hours from the USA - heading south (Alaska is even further away heading north). [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=arial, sans-serif][SIZE=2][COLOR=#545454]I have what looks like a satellite dish on my roof (like the ones you get TV reception on) but it is actually aimed a a tower that is sending a radio signal and not a a satellite. People tend to speak of them as satellite internet hook up but it is radio signal based. But weather is a factor. Snow or even a heavy fog will cut it off - a good rain will slow it down a lot. I think when they say they are my "ISP" they mean my "internet sometimes provider" :) Truthfully we get internet most of the time. And when it is snowing I need my rest anyway so i'm good to go shovel when it stops. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
