I suspect you won’t be happy with 2-way sat internet. I had a friend on it for years and he could never get much more than 10k/sec up and up to about 40k down. If it rained or snowed, he was offline.

Is there any method you can improve your current provider? Perhaps put your antennae on a pole or say a 40 foot tower?
You’ll probably have better results in the end.

The provider I have is pretty cooperative but there are some things they won’t do - insurance no doubt. Their techs have to be able to access the antenna without ladders. Standing on a roof is ok but needing something to stand on is a no-no. Believe me, I’ll thoroughly exercise them before I switch to someone else and have to go through another learning curve.
