On the service this might not sound like this is blindness related but 
indirectly it is.  If you can't get internet from cable or your line 
phone companies then your only other option is sattlite internet.  I 
live in an apartment complex on the 8th flor of a 10 story building.  We 
only have one pervider of internet in our building thats comcast and 
they blocked me for complaining about my internet speed.  They have told 
from corperate that I can never get serviceever again.Just alot of 
complexes they require dish antennas to be mounted in a bucket.  I 
called both huzenet and viosat and they will not install my dish because 
it's in a bucket.  I also got the same answer fromdish network and 
direct tv.  They might as well say that they don't service people in 
complexes.  I told them all that this is discrimination against people 
in complexes.  if you are blind you will not have internet if you live 
in a apartment complex.  Theese sattlite companies like to give me a big 
pack of lies and say that my bucket mount is not a stable mount well 
guess what it's the very best mount that you can get.  When I had direct 
tv my dish did not move in 2 years and we have had winds up to 70 plus 
miles per hour even huracane sandy.  If you are blind or not and you 
live in an apartment complex and you want to get sattlite internet well 
just forget about it because it will never happen.  Basically I am told 
that I don't have the right to have internet and we need a law to change 
this.
