Satellite isn’t such a great alternative. Where do you live? If you live in the US, type your adress into this link.

see if you have EVDO coverage. This is real broadband. I’m a over the road truck driver and use this. I couldn’t be happier. Most of the time it’s faster than my DSL line at home. This is far superior to satellite. I’m sitting here in middle of Oklahoma, there is nothing around me but cattle and oil wells and I have a broadband connection fast enough to watch streaming videos without so much as a pause for buffering.
You can get Satellite internet, but it is rather expensive and your upload would still be through dial up speeds. If you are too far from a CO to get DSL and Cable is not offered in your area, you may want to look in to a wireless broadband service as the speed would be better up and down and the price may be comparable to satellite.
