Satellite TV and internet connection
Is there a service out there that gives you satellite tv and wifi using the same box/cube/whatever you name it?

No, it's not easy since satellite TV and satellite internet have virtually nothing in common other than the fact that they both use satellites.
Satellite TV is a one-way communication system, from ground station to satellite to your TV. Satellite internet involves a two-way communication link which includes a transmitter in your antenna to talk back to the satellite.
So there is no reason for the two services to be bundled; the providers are different and the equipment needed is very different.
