A single satellite can provide up to 200GBs internet speed to over 2500 customers at a 100Mbs rate each. The speed can get even higher when there are a few users on the satellite.

The dish will also have a snow melting feature that gives the dish a clear view of the sky even in the fall. More also, the package comes with an app that can help you choose the right spot for your dish in order to maximize the performance in any area.
