How Galaxy Satellite Internet Works

How Satellite Internet Works

Step 1 With the installation of a Galaxy satellite dish you now can send requests such as e-mails and browser searches from your computer which is transmitted by the little Galaxy dish up to the satellite and down to our Network Operations Center (NOC)
Step 2 From the Galaxy Network Operations Center (NOC) which contacts the specific website through the World Wide Web Internet (the cloud). This is where the real "Galaxy" difference takes place. Our unique network will prioritize your request and through our Quality of Service QoS, we deliver it more consistently and efficiently.
Step 3 The Website sends the information back to the Galaxy NOC and then beams the information back through the same path to your computer.
