Satellite Internet

What is satellite internet and how does it work?

Satellite internet connects you to the web using a satellite dish and modem, perfect for rural homes, remote sites, boats, or off-grid projects where other networks don't reach.

Is satellite internet fast enough for regular use?

Yes, it supports basic browsing, email, file transfers, and even video calls depending on the terminal. Some systems like Starlink now offer broadband-level speeds.

Can I install satellite internet myself?

Many systems are designed for self-installation with guided setup tools. GTC also offers support and setup services if needed.

What equipment do I need to get started?

Typically, you’ll need a satellite terminal (dish/modem), a power source, and a clear view of the sky. GTC provides complete kits and advice on choosing the right one.

Will bad weather affect my internet connection?

Heavy rain or snow can occasionally reduce signal strength, but most modern systems are designed to minimise downtime.
