Is satellite internet finally reliable enough for remote AI developers?

[Coastal Otter]

Remote developers need stable internet more than almost anything else, especially when working with cloud AI tools, repositories and large datasets. Satellite internet has improved a lot, but reliability, latency, weather and data policies still matter. For someone living outside fibre coverage, it might be life changing. For someone already on a good wired connection, it still feels like a backup rather than a first choice

For rural developers, satellite internet can be the difference between staying local and moving house

I would trust it as a backup, but not as my only connection for client work

Latency is better than it used to be, but real time collaboration can still expose the weakness

Not sure I am fully with you on that one. Fair enough really.

Nice one

The best setup is probably fibre if you can get it, satellite if you cannot and mobile backup just in case
