What is Viasat Internet?

Residential satellite internet service is provided by Viasat Internet. We're committed to bringing dependable, high-speed access to the most difficult-to-reach people, places, and things, including families living in rural or isolated areas where cable companies do not operate.

How does satellite technology work?

Viasat satellite internet works as follows:

1. You use your laptop or mobile device to access your favorite website. Your request is routed to your Viasat modem, then to the dish outside your home via a short connection.
2. Your request is transmitted to our satellite via the dish installed at your property.
3. Your website request is routed by our satellite to a gateway station connected to our ground network.
4. The station forwards your request to your preferred website.
5. The website sends the information you requested back to the station, which then sends it up to our satellite, where it is sent straight to you.
