Satellite Internet FAQ

Satellite Internet FAQ

Traditional GEO satellite internet, such as HughesNet and Viasat, sends data 22,000 miles to orbit, resulting in 600–800 ms latency. Starlink uses low-Earth orbit satellites, offering 50–200 Mbps download and 20–40 ms latency. HughesNet and Viasat impose data caps; Starlink does not. Weather can disrupt service, though Starlink dishes may include heaters to melt snow.
