Need opinion(s) on satellite internet
I'll be spending the summer in SW Montana (yea!) without cell service (boo!).
I need internet. If TV can be bundled with it, great. Right now I have land line verizon FIOS, but after the summer I will be converting to a satellite system for the house,e.g. DirecTV, if that makes a difference.
Looking for suggestions on
(1) Provider
(2) Antenna - automatic is nice, but is it worth 2x price?
(3) If I go with a tripod antenna vs a 'tailgater' what is the difference in storage space? Can the tripod antenna be relatively easily broken down for storage? I know there is a difference in set up time, but that is immaterial to me. Comfortable shooting azimuth/direction, etc.
(4) How far from the RV can the antenna be and still transmit signal (don't think this will be a problem, but curious)
(5) What did I forget to ask?
Don't need on-the-go service
Thanks!
