The Broadband Global Area Network (BGAN) is a global satellite network with telephony using portable terminals. The terminals are normally used to connect a laptop computer to broadband Internet in remote locations, although as long as line-of-sight to the satellite exists, the terminal can be used anywhere.
We agree that the cost of BGAN satellite Internet service is very expensive when compared to cellular services or other satellite dish services. The primary reason is because you are transmitting to a satellite over 22,000 miles away using the L-Band frequency.
