Surrounded by rivers, breathtaking landscapes, lush greenery, agriculture, and eco-lodges, all in a peaceful setting is how one might describe Puerto Viejo de #Sarapiquí. Previously an area off the tourist radar, it is becoming a destination for tourists both within Costa Rica and the rest of the world including nature lovers and scientists. Colorful shallow-hull boats take tourists along the rivers, showing them the wildlife, and giving them a taste of Tiquicia. It sounds like heaven on earth, doesn’t it? But there’s just one little hiccup: in some areas, the internet can be slower than a sloth sipping a cappuccino. Rural communities like Puerto Viejo de Sarapiquí historically struggle to access reliable high-speed Internet, making it difficult for them to stay connected, work remotely, or operate farm-based or tourism-based businesses so common in this area.

But worry not, internet aficionados! Itellum comes to the rescue with high-speed satellite Internet, beaming high-speed connectivity straight out of the Sky!

Reach for the Stars

Living in a rural community shouldn’t mean you have to compromise on fast, reliable Internet. Enter the age of the Internet via satellite – an innovative, “out-of-this-world” technology that brings unparalleled advantages to communities like Puerto Viejo de Sarapiquí and surrounding areas.

Unlike wired networks like DSL and fiber optics, rural satellite internet beams its signal directly to your home from a satellite orbiting the Earth (cool, right?). With no need for pesky wires, cables, and poles, this advanced technology reaches even the most remote corners of Costa Rica.

And Itellum isn’t just “any” satellite internet service. Their competitive edge comes from the HughesNet Jupiter2 satellite, providing an impressive 97% coverage of the entire country!

Beam Me Up

So how does fast satellite Internet work? 

Let’s take a simple scenario. When you request a webpage, send an email, or stream a video, your request is beamed from your device to the Jupiter2 satellite, which then beams the data to its destination which in turn is beamed back to you — all in fractions of a second.

In comparing rural satellite Internet to DSL and fiber optics, just imagine yourself as the lead character in a spy movie. The information you need is sent directly to you and only you, in the form of a top-secret beam from space. There is no need to wait for the construction of a shared wired network on the ground to reach your area.
