Bringing Rural Texas Up To Speed With Satellite Internet

We all know the frustration of trying to load a website or upload a picture using dial-up internet

. The slow speed at which dial-up internet operates often takes up so much time and causes so much anxiety that we finally just give up. While major metropolitan areas in Texas, such as Austin, Houston, and Dallas have switched to broadband internet years ago, many rural areas in the state have yet to experience high speed internet. Now, with satellite broadband internet, everyone within the entire state can now forget about those frustrations and rely on a strong connection to access the worldwide web.

Broadband internet such as cable or DSL has been around for a while; however, many rural areas in Texas have not been able to enjoy the fruits of this new technology. Because the infrastructure for cable and DSL internet is costly, it is often unprofitable for cable service providers to set up the necessary infrastructure in regions that are sparsely populated. Consequently, most households in more rural areas resorted to depend on dial-up internet as their means to access the worldwide web. The advent of satellite broadband internet is now changing that. Because it uses signals received from satellites orbiting space to access the internet, you can log online from virtually anywhere on the globe.

Satellite broadband internet makes it much more convenient and much easier to stay connected with loved ones. Previously, dial-up internet operated much too slow for users to video chat or even audio chat through the internet. The best one is could do was leave a few message through email or social media networks, such as Facebook or Myspace. Catching up in real time was limited to long distance phone calls, which proved costly and for many unaffordable for more than a few phone calls every few months. However, now with high speed internet, video chatting capabilities are now feasible. People are now able to use applications such as Skype or GoogleTalk to connect with their loved ones from across the country. Instead of costly long distance phone calls or impersonal email messages, you can interact face-to-face with an old high school friend, grandparents, or even perhaps a college-aged child studying abroad in Europe.

In addition, you can now stream videos, upload, and download files with much more ease and speed. No longer do you need to wait for videos to stream on websites like YouTube; you can instantly enjoy those videos with high speed internet. Moreover, you can also share and view photographs with much more ease. Because photographs will upload onto your photo-sharing website, such as Flickr or Facebook, much more quickly, you can share with friends and families albums of photos from your recent family vacation or your childs graduation. Instead of dealing with the reality of dial-up connectionselectively loading desired photographs, avoiding pages with flash, or chatting with friends instead of video chattingyou can now enjoy the internet without sacrificing anything.

You can now stay connected with the latest technologies. Rather than rely on archaic means of communication like old-fashioned phone calls or email exchange to catch up with loved ones, you can really enjoy a long conversation with a friend or family member face-to-face using video chat made possible by high speed satellite internet.
