Time to catch up with technology
With cable companies starting you off at 200Mbs and no data caps, when will the satellite industry move forward. I (and many like me) are in a situation where satellite is the ONLY option we have. We are being left in the dark ages. Why is this industry so far behind?

Because it is satellite and 200 mbps is unobtainable with only several satellites serving all the customers. Perhaps if you are willing to pay $500/month so they can launch more satellites. Even then it would take years to build and launch them.
Satellite internet is not like satellite TV with signals being broadcast in one direction down to the user.
