Satellite is garbage and should only be used when you seriously have no other option.
Speed varys big time, a fucking cloud passing buy can really slow you down. a few satellite providers i’ve seen are exspensive and on top of being exspensive only allow a certain ammount of bandwidth per month.
As hybrid and Gat said, as long as you have an EVDO signal, get a broadband card from a cell phone company.
Another option if you want mutliple computers without multiple broadband cards and plans is MiFi from Verizon/Sprint/ATT. Honestly I love it we use MiFi from verizon at work for people on the road, its a small wireless hub that allows up to 4-5 computers to simultaneously connect to the internet. Costs the same as any other broadband card plan which can vary from 30-50 a month depending on plan and provider.
You can plug it into the wall at home or use it on the go anywhere. You dont need to plug it into your computer providing your computer weather desktop or laptop has a wireless card

I use Verizon Wireless and AT&T ‘aircards’ for my mobile users at the office. My companies CEO uses a AT&T card (and internationally), and I still have a job so…
They are pretty reliable and work half decent.
