Any satelitte systems for both TV and Internet combined?
I am wondering if there is a combo dish solution for TV and Internet?

I vaguely recall that Dishnetwork used to have an agreement with Hughes to run it with a 2nd LNB, not sure this is still a fact.
With Viasat you'll want unlimited data plan (kind of, see below). Plans after 3 month introductory catch start from $70 plus tax. This is internet only. Direct TV plans start from $35 for basic plan. Unlimited data means until you exceed 100GB (?) per month. Then your speed drops to crawl. They also have a limited data plan for $50, but it doesn't look good.
Data cap, cost upwards of $100 (for internet+TV) and sub-par speeds make this combo not very attractive.
It "sounds" like DirecTV can be received on Viasat dish, not 100% positive. But it doesn't work the other way around - DirecTV dish won't receive Viasat internet.
Go cold turkey. Camp WiFi where there is any, none where there isn't. Few TV channels of free to air broadcasting where it works, radio where it doesn't.
