Sattelite Downlinks (Known from planet connect http://www.planetc.com)
is about 128KBit/s but it is !NOT IP! so you need a special receiver
and a special card for a normal PC.
On the other hand are bidirectional Sat-IP connections which are normally
64KBit/s or a multiple of this (128 196) etc ..
The biggest feed i heard of is 220MBit/s which are multiple MPEG
stream (Digital TV broadcast) but this is Unidirectional.
