The Equator and internet service??
Does being closer to the equator have anything to do with internet service? Up North it could be raining, sleeting, snowing cats and dogs and I ALWAYS had internet service. Here in Florida, EVER...

2-way Satellite Internet (HUGHES, Exceed, And a few others) are also radio and subject to storm interference.

My neighbors here have Hughes and they get dropped when it rains hard.
OP here.
I'm not a full blown techie but in answer to what I use to access the internet:
It's a USB plug, like small thumb drive. I plug it into my laptop and voila I have internet. There is no phone connection, no antenna, no cable hook up nada nothing just my providers USB plugged into the laptop.
I used it Full timing for over 6 years and had access everywhere I traveled. Even in the rain!! Except now in north central Florida.
Let me mention for those that have never been to Florida. It rains in solid sheets of water. Being from up North I have never seen anything like it! Perhaps the "density" of the rain is what makes the difference from other parts of the US regarding being an interference?
Sooo you are saying my internet IS satellite and considered radio?
