How does satellite internet work?

1.37K views

Like how does it connect you to the internet compared to broadband/dsl ISP providers because I think I know that you’d run through their “hubs” to get there just curious on how using a satellite ISP works and why it wouldn’t be faster?

Satellite internet uses a dish connected to your modem to transmit to and receive from a geostationary communications satellite. The satellite then relays your traffic to a ground station that connects to the ground-based internet.

The newest generation use Ku band radio waves to transmit.
