Comcast Cable Broadband Michael Schwartz, New Skies' senior vice president of marketing and corporate development, said: "In many regions of the world, last-mile terrestrial connectivity cannot support the bandwidth requirements of large corporate enterprises or ISP networks. Even current satellite solutions typically require extensive terrestrial networks in order to connect remote sites to two-way satellite gateways.

Broadband data service provided by your mobile wireless phone carrier is another option for high–speed Internet access. Broadband data service is available for users with wireless mobile smart phones. It is also available for a notebook computer, using a broadband data card provided by the wireless service provider that connects via a USB port or card slot). The broadband data service connects your computer to the nearest wireless mobile tower, enabling you to use it while the RV is parked or moving.

Time Warner Cable Broadband "Using the new two-way hubs, the IPsys Broadband and IPsys BoD services will allow our customers to establish two-way networks by directly linking remote sites to the hubs entirely independent of terrestrial infrastructure, while also employing low-cost end-user terminals and small antennas. The new services will bring cost-effective next-generation broadband Internet services to areas where often there are no Internet access options, let alone broadband services."

IPsys BoD and IPsys Broadband overcome this limitation by allowing multiple small- and medium-sized regional service providers to aggregate their networks on New Skies' Multi-ISP hubs at our owned and affiliated mediaports," added Schwartz.
