Any reviews on Satellite Broadband Connections in Chennai

[Ramesh04Kumar]

Hi,
I'm a freelancer, and I moved to a new home, near Medavakam - Vengaivasal, Chennai. Here there is no wired broadband services available and I've tried MTS, Airtel, BSNL and Reliance wireless broadband n all have signal problems. Bcz of this my work is getting affected, Also my wife also has a work from home option in her company, but she's not able to take it bcz of this internet issue. I enquired Hughes Satellile Internet and their cost is very high. Is there any other ISPs that give VSAT connection for a good rate. or is there any other way I can solve my internet issue in my area.

Are you getting a decent signal anywhere in your premises? If the problem is only indoor, you could use a cellular antenna/booster setup like this one http://www.ebay.in/itm/Airtel-3G-Mobile-Data-Signal-Booster-Repeater-Amplifier-PS2100-/321360388651?pt=IN_Mobile_Accessories&hash=item4ad292622b&_uhb=1 which will improve signals within the house (you need to choose a booster setup corresponding to the frequency needed) or something like this connected to your data card (you need to get a data card with external antenna connector) http://www.ebay.in/itm/Universal-Data-Card-Antenna-Signal-Booster-Complete-kit-For-Huawei-Data-Card-/321361949898?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_203&hash=item4ad2aa34ca&_uhb=1
