What is satellite internet?
Low-orbit satellite internet connects your home to a network of satellites circling close to the Earth. It uses a large constellation of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites to deliver internet connectivity to a user terminal on the ground, which then provides Wi-Fi to local devices. Because the satellites orbit much closer to Earth than traditional satellite services, satellite internet can offer lower latency than older satellite systems.
