Satellite Internet access is used by people on almost every country on Earth, often in cases where standard terrestrial services are unavailable. While satellite communication does have some disadvantages associated with latency and weather, there are many advantages associated with remote access. The biggest users of satellite internet (Internet über Satellitenschüssel) services are often people in remote locations, with geostationary orbits able to provide Internet access to people all over the Earth regardless of their proximity to local infrastructure. Because of this, satellite Internet access fulfils a vital role in the democratisation of Internet delivery services around the world.

There are a number of different technologies used in satellite Internet systems, depending on the nature of the service and the final location of the installation. Systems can be roughly divided into two way satellite only communication or one way systems that use terrestrial infrastructure to transmit data. In standard two way satellite only communication, a remote VSAT satellite is used to relay data between satellite dishes located on Earth. The satellite dish at each location needs to be precisely pointed in order to avoid interference with other satellites. While both businesses and personal users can use this kind of Internet communications system, it is often only considered if there is no terrestrial alternative. However, for people with specific needs and customers in remote locations, satellite Internet is often the best way to achieve Internet access.

Other than satellite Internet access, some of the other ways that people go online include microwave mobile Internet access, ADSL, and dial-up services. However, all of these services rely on terrestrial communications infrastructure, which is unreliable or simply unavailable in many locations. For people who want reliable access to the Internet from practically any location on the planet, satellite delivery and transmission is often the best alternative. With either a two way satellite system of a one way satellite receive system, people everywhere can benefit from using the Internet despite their geographical location.
