Why StarBand? — StarBand Benefits

High-Speed: StarBand downloads at speeds up to 10 to 20 times faster than dial-up services. With download speeds up to 500 Kbps for StarBand Residential, a 5-minute download via dial-up can now take as little as 30 seconds! With StarBand Small Office, download speeds are up to 1 Mbps and upload speeds are up to 256 Kbps in Turbo Max® (speeds may vary based on file size & type).

One Antenna, Two-Way: StarBand uses a single satellite dish antenna for receiving AND sending information -- no telephone connection is needed. Plus, the StarBand antenna can accommodate both the Internet and EchoStar's DISH Network™ satellite TV programming (additional fees apply). StarBand service can bring the Internet and hundreds of channels of television into your home, all through one dish antenna.

Always-On Access: StarBand service provides always-on Internet access, with no wait to reconnect every time you want to surf the Web or check e-mail. You'll stay connected to the Internet via a high-speed link as long as your system is on.

Nationwide Availability: StarBand service is available virtually everywhere in the continental United States, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, so you control your Internet access options regardless of how far away you live from the nearest telephone switch or cable node.
