The Internet
Accessing the Internet at high-speeds opens up a WildBlue world
full of information and entertainment. You will now be able to
surf the Web at lightning-fast speeds, download music and
movies, share photos with friends and family, and much, much
more.
WildBlue Gateways
WildBlue has 5 gateways located throughout the U.S. and Canada
that efficiently connect WildBlue’s satellite access network
with the Internet. Each gateway consists of microwave, Internet,
and other broadband equipment that quickly and efficiently route
traffic from the customer’s PC to the Internet and back.
WildBlue connects the gateways to the Internet via a
state-of-the-art fiber backbone.
WildBlue Satellite
WildBlue has designed a state-of-the-art Ka-band communications
system aboard Telesat’s Anik F2 satellite that covers the
contiguous U.S. with 31 spot beams. Built by Boeing and launched
by Arianespace, the Anik F2 satellite is one of the largest
commercial satellites ever manufactured, and is in a
geostationary orbit 22,500 miles above the equator at 111.1°
West Longitude. WildBlue chose the 20/30 GHz Ka-band frequencies
and a spot-beam architecture as the most efficient and effective
technology platform to offer broadband via satellite. WildBlue’s
advanced technology and low cost structure allows us to offer
consumers and small office customers higher speeds and lower
prices than other satellite broadband companies.
WildBlue’s satellite technology allows us to modify various
parameters of the earth-to-space signals on an individual user
basis so as to adapt in real time to each user’s situation,
which may change due to weather and other factors.
WildBlue Minidish
WildBlue’s minidish (28” x 26”) both receives signals from the
WildBlue satellite, and sends signals from the customer up to
the satellite. Using the latest microwave receive and transmit
technologies, WildBlue offers a small, efficient minidish which
can be mounted on a roof, wall or via pole mount in the ground.
Chapel will provide your WildBlue
professional installation of the WildBlue equipment which

A WildBlue modem is required to connect one or more customer PCs
to the WildBlue network. WildBlue uses standardized modem
technology based on the DOCSIS cable modem standards to offer a
