Sаtellite internet generally means Internet access, implemented via satellite in geostationary orbit (36,000 km of the equator than in the Clarke Belt orbit etc.) andend-user devices - VSAT (very small aperture terminal, a terminal with a smallaperture) that is installed next to the user equipment. The Internet is an abbreviation for Inter-Network and is publicly accessible, inter-connected system of computers (with in which information and services are offered to consumers), which uses protocol like TCP / IP (Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol).

The main advantages of satellite internet access are coverage of the entire country, the ability to rapidly build connectivity and independence from terrestrial infrastructure.Meanwhile satellite Internet access is characterized by greater latency (ping over500-600 ms only in the satellite segment) compared to terrestrial solutions, like them it is usually is asymmetric. To reduce the impact of the delay special software is implemented to accelerators. Orbital positions and the capacity of the transmission environment of each satellite is a limited resource and therefore is more expensive in contrast to terrestrial alternatives. Until recently, a satellite transponder normally was used by ten thousand users and in only one HUB.

With launching the new satellite KA-SAT, which is specially designed for data transmission it becomes possible to serve about 1 million Internet users in Europe and some areas close to it. The high cost of satellite resources requires to implementation policies for equal access, limiting the over consumption of some users over others. Interferences in the atmosphere have a negligible impact on satellite connections. The availability of the service is guaranteed over 99.5% of the year (possible lack of service to 44hours).

For the use of satellite Internet access the user needs to install a VSAT terminal consisting of an antenna, external and internal devices (TRIA - transmit and receive integrated assembly and satellite modem) connected with a coaxial cable. The modem has a LAN-port, through which computers or other IP device may be connected.

If you're a typical Internet user, satellite internet access will help you to beconstantly on-line and will be useful everywhere, especially in places where there is no alternative.

In the section "Volume Calculator" http://www.tooway.com/Solutions you can approximate calculate which tariff plan is best suited for your needs

Tooway-packages for satellite access through KA-SAT are currently the best that is available on the market of satellite Internet access in Bulgaria as regards to cost / access speed, and quality. Access through them is unlimited in terms of bandwidth, while an effective mechanism to stop excessive peak by some users at the expense of quality of service for others is implemented. This is the FAP - policy of equal access(fair access policy). The FAP-algorithm continuously reports traffic across all active terminals in the network and reduces connection speed upon reaching certain (different for different subscriptions) thresholds for traffic carried over the network. The central station (etc. HUB) of the network is where FAP is applied while taking into account constantly brought traffic information from any terminal in the 5 permanent moving "time window" - periods of the current moment ago - to 4 weeks to 1 week to 24 hours up to 4 hours to 1 hour.

The value for the FAP threshold is different for the different subscription plans.

The volume of carried traffic is calculated as the sum of download-and upload-traffic the traffic for the period (presumably in the ration of 4:1). In addition, in the time window from 23:00 to 07:00 Bulgarian time (CET: 22:00-6:00) received traffic is reported by half. Upon reaching the FAP-limit maximum download speed is reduced. For more details see the section on FAP.

To overcome the FAP-activated limitation may be the option Tooway Booster, allowing a single to be moved further until 1 GB.
