Hi Jackie,
The only company that offered a dish that would work for satellite internet in motion went out of business a number of years ago. The equipment was about $6000.00 and the service was a little faster than dial up.
I don't think any of the TV satellites are currently compatible with satellite internet signals.
I'd suggest investigating cell phone antenna's and boosters as RV's in general make pretty good Faraday cages (i.e. cell phone signals become very weak).
I'd look at Wilson equipment and get a trucker's antenna and mount it with a good ground plain as high as is practical. You might want to be able to fold it down "on the fly" for overpasses and the like.
For stationary service go to a High-Gain Directional Yagi Cellular antenna.
Wilson also sells a 3 watt booster amp. This can be used to rebroadcast what ever signal there is inside the RV.
You do not say who your cell phone service provider is. Verizon appears to have the best coverage.
