Anik F2 is a North American satellite designed to deliver improved high-speed internet at a much lower cost to consumers. This satellite will be the first to utilize the Ka frequency and deliver complete coverage to the North American continent at a price that is equivalent to land-based DSL and cable modem services but with a much wider range of service than land-based DSL or cable modem companies.
There are fairly reasonable monthly rates available to satellite broadband customers which will only improve with time. Currently, the lowest monthly rates are fairly competitive for home and personal use plans. This low monthly rate is available to consumers who initially invest in their own equipment upfront for the entire system including installation with some rebates available. Other options include financing the cost of equipment into the monthly access fee for a designated number of months to pay for the equipment and then going to a reduced, normal monthly access fee after the equipment is paid for. Service packages differ slightly depending on how the service provider has arranged the subscriber plans. Investigating the subscriber plans of several satellite internet providers will present you with more choices and the opportunity to find the plan that's right for you.
