veletron Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Hi Anyone got one of these??! http://www.ez-net.co.uk/ £999 + £50 activation + £16/month rolling contract. The £16/month gets you 3GB of data 4Mbits download, 368Kbits upload speeds. Once you use all the data, it switches down to low speed 256Kbits each way with a large additional limit (30GB) Other packages also exist more data, higher speeds Seems like a relative bargain compared to some Satellite internet systems, and the Astra 3 satellite provides near pan-european coverage (southern Spain, Portugal , Norway, Sweden,Finland missing). Buying one with a bunch of mates with differing holiday plans and using it 'timeshare' might be viable! Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veletron Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 Also: http://www.conrad-anderson.co.uk/products/view/satellite-internet/satellite-internet-systems/satinttrip Home DIY possibilities from 245+40+9.95/month: https://www.satelliteinternet.co.uk/packages (ka band) --> this lot have lots of different options, incl Ku band (up to 10Mbits) or Ka band (up to 20Mbits). Ka band relies on spot beams and requires you to select a location (and contact provider to get beam switched if travelling) - it also seems that alignment is more difficult. Ka is on Astra2 at 28.2E while Ku is on Astra 3 at 23.5E - the latter would allow a dual LNB arrangement for internet and telle on the same dish (2nd LNB views dish at an angle to receive ASTRA 2 28.2E) Should be poss to adapt this for mobile use - eg replacement, more compact dish+tripod using the LNB/Modem from the £245 diy-install 'home' kit. Might have to investigate! Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
