Connected Isolation

There are many appealing aspects about the idea of "getting away from it all" and moving out into the rural, isolated lands of the United States. The calm, slower pace of life would probably add a couple of years to any person's lifespan and allow a lot of personal reflection. One of the unfortunate things about adopting this type of lifestyle and place of residence is that the conveniences of hectic living are no longer there. Everything from grocery shopping to sending mail becomes a little more difficult and time consuming. One way to ease this problem without having to sacrifice a move to the sticks is by installing satellite internet.

By simply placing a dish on the property and aligning it with a satellite in space, the internet can be brought to the home of whoever wants it, no matter where they reside. In order for the dish to work however, it must have a clear line of sight between the dish and the satellite, so placing a dish in the middle of the woods is not going to give the best results. If someone lives in a very wet area that receives a lot of rainfall then it would be a good idea to invest in a larger dish that increases the amount of satellite signal it will receive. Implementing a dish that is anywhere from 3.7 to 13 meters in diameter is the best way to cut down on rain fade interrupting the connection. This is the best way to ensure successful satellite internet access in rain heavy areas.

The beauty of using satellite to access the internet is that a person does not need to worry about how they will get access to dial up when they are located far away from any kind of service company. By just installing the dish and the other equipment a person can access the internet without having to use a phone line and the connection is much faster than tradition dial up internet. With internet access people in the most rural parts of the United States can stay in contact with the people they care about as well as keep up to date with the goings on of the world. Satellite internet provides all of the information and ease of living in a city without the hassle of all the people crowded around.

The one area that would take some getting used to would be the issue of latency. For someone who is used to high speed internet, it can be a frustrating transition to make. If a person has enough money to put towards it and internet access is very important to them, then high speed satellite internet is available. Now, living in the middle of nowhere no longer means being totally divorced from the technological world. These days a person simply has to bring the internet with them instead of striking out and trying to find it on their own. Oddly enough, technological innovations are making it easier for people to live in more rural seclusion.
