Cheap Satelite Internet Blog
Cheap satellite Internet is one service that can be hard to find these days. However, there is a bright spot; there are a few companies that now offer much more reasonable deals making satellite Internet a choice for almost any home Internet user.
It should be noted that satellite Internet is not as fast or as affordable as broadband cable or even DSL. However, for those that live in areas where these alternatives are not available, satellite Internet can offer a broadband-like pipe to the Internet.
How Cheap is Cheap?
Well you might not be jumping for joy, but if you were expecting prices over $100 you will definitely be relieved. With the cheapest service available, expect to pay less than $50; for more moderate services, expect a price range hovering around $75. The following two plans may interest you:
WindBlue
WindBlue offers two competitive packages for delivering satellite Internet on the cheap. The first is called ProPak and includes a maximum download speed of 1.5 Mbps and a maximum upload speed of 256 Mbps (enough for most home users). The cost of this service is $79.95 per month with a one time installation fee of $79.95 and an equipment fee of $249.95.
WindBlue also offers a low-cost package called Value Pak. This includes a maximum download speed of 512 Kbps and a maximum upload speed of 128 Kbps. The cost for this service is $49.95 per month. An additional one-time fee for installation is $79.95 and an equipment fee of $249.95 is also required.
Hughes Net
Hughes Net is also another low cost satellite internet provider in North America. While not as cheap as WindBlue, they may have coverage areas where WindBlue does not. Hughes Nets lowest cost package, called the Home package, comes with a maximum download speed of 700 Kbps and a maximum upload speed of 128 Kbps. The cost per month is $59.99 with an upfront purchase of equipment totaling $399.98.
While obviously not as cheap as cable or DSL, satellite Internet service is definitely making strides into the home market. For those that live in rural areas or who are not supported by cable or DSL, satellite Internet is definitely worth the investment.
