Up in the mountains above the Central Valley<\/strong>, peaking out from the fluffy clouds <\/strong>where you\u2019ll see road signs that indicate cows crossing<\/strong> \u2014 a warning that you should slow down in case a few of our dairy-producing \u201cfriends\u201d are making their way across the street. This is “dairy country”<\/strong> with its clean<\/strong>, crisp air<\/strong>, lush hills<\/strong> and valleys<\/strong>, and some of the nicest folks you would ever want to meet. The added bonus is you\u2019ve got birding and biking and you\u2019re just far enough away from the city to enjoy your surroundings, and for some, a lack of \u201cgood\u201d #Internet<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is good Internet, you ask? It\u2019s when you have a consistent connection <\/strong>that you can actually rely on. And it does exist with rural satellite internet<\/strong> from Itellum<\/strong><\/a>. Let\u2019s answer a few questions\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. What is Itellum?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Itellum<\/a><\/strong> is an internet service provider (ISP) that offers Internet via satellite.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. How can they supply reliable internet to remote areas?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company uses the HughesNet <\/a>Jupiter2 <\/strong>satellite that covers 97% of Costa Rica <\/strong>including areas with little <\/strong>or no access <\/strong>to terrestrial <\/strong>Internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. How do I know Itellum is a reputable company?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company was made the official satellite internet provider<\/strong> by the Costa Rica government<\/strong>. The CEO <\/strong>and Founder, Tim Foss<\/strong> had this to say, \u201cWe will connect <\/strong>as many under-connected and disconnected students, teachers, schools, health facilities, rural towns, beaches, parks<\/strong>, and indigenous zones as quickly <\/strong>as possible throughout Costa Rica with HughesNet<\/a><\/strong> High-Speed Satellite Internet<\/a><\/strong>. Itellum<\/a><\/strong> has a greenfield opportunity to quickly begin connecting <\/strong>the forgotten<\/strong>, ignored<\/strong>, and overlooked rural zones<\/strong>.\u201d During the last year,<\/strong> they have completed over 400 installations in rural,<\/strong> remote, and difficult-to-reach<\/strong> locations<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. How does it work?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

High-Throughput Satellite Broadband<\/a><\/strong> is transmitted via a Ka-band radio signal<\/strong> from the satellite <\/strong>orbiting the Earth <\/strong>directly to a receiver dish <\/strong>mounted on the roof <\/strong>of your building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Can I stream videos and play games online?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes. It is the Fastest Satellite Internet Available<\/strong><\/a> so it enables you to watch <\/strong>your favorite shows<\/strong>, and talk <\/strong>with friends <\/strong>or relatives without slowing <\/strong>down or frequently dropping <\/strong>the connection<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. How long do we have to wait for it to be available in Cascajal?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Satellite Broadband Internet<\/a> <\/strong>is available now <\/strong>in your area. Simply call Itellum<\/a> <\/strong>and they\u2019ll send a crew out to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. How long does installation take and what equipment do I need?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Installation <\/strong>of the Best Satellite Broadband Possible<\/a><\/strong> only takes a few hours<\/strong>. The experienced technicians <\/strong>bring all the equipment <\/strong>required and all you need is your computer<\/strong>, smartphone<\/strong>, or tablet <\/strong>to connect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Will it work in cloudy or rainy weather?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes. New technology <\/strong>and their professional installations <\/strong>minimize the effect of water infiltration giving you Reliable Satellite Internet and Broadband<\/a><\/strong> at your home <\/strong>or business<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. I have DSL internet at my business. Why would I need this?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your business requires a constant internet connection<\/strong>, Secure and Fast Satellite Services<\/a> <\/strong>can provide you with a robust<\/strong>, instant backup<\/strong> system <\/strong>when your primary system goes down. This means your business <\/strong>can continue uninterrupted operations <\/strong>at all times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. Why wouldn\u2019t I just wait for fiber optics to be available at the farm?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chances are you would have a long wait. Systems like fiber optic<\/strong> require an infrastructure to be constructed on the ground which can be expensive<\/strong> for the ISP because of cabling, numerous technicians, and additional equipment<\/strong> needed to bring the service to you. ISP companies<\/strong> have to decide if that expense is worth<\/strong> it, and if you are in a remote area<\/strong>, they may not want to spend money <\/strong>on that infrastructure <\/strong>if they can\u2019t see a return <\/strong>on their investment<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Costa Rica\u2019s only High-Speed Satellite Internet<\/a><\/strong> is equally suitable for households<\/strong>, businesses<\/strong>, agricultural operations<\/strong>, medical facilities<\/strong>, emergency response teams<\/strong>, schools<\/strong>, and institutional entities<\/strong> such as government offices<\/strong>. Itellum<\/a> <\/strong>is realizing their vision of bridging the \u201cdigital divide\u201d between rural and urban communities throughout the country. So you don\u00b4t have to wait more.\u00a0Contact us now!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
