Direct TV, can you get the internet through the satellite dish?
I live out where there is no cable or DSL hard wired into the ground like most neighborhoods. Although I do have direct TV (satellite dish) and am able to get reception. The kind with 500 channels or whatever. Would I be able to get internet through the satellite dish? Or does the internet have to be hardwired to my property?
You cannot with the dish you receive TV with. You need a separate dish, wiring, boxes, and service for satellite internet.
Yeah its called Hughesnet or something like that. Call DirecTV and they can help. It is satellite based so it has to be hooked in like your satelite dish. I think its pricey though.
