Overview
Press a button on our manufactured Toughsat Satellite Internet System from Ground Control and minutes later you will be online with up to 20Mbps x 5Mbps speeds using our iDirect service from us or any iDirect provider worldwide.
Satellite internet, unlike cellular, has no dead zones even in disaster areas. If you can see the sky, you may connect for high-speed internet and phone. Ground Control has been a leader in auto-deploy satellite antennas with thousands of organizations since 2002.
Simple Operation – No Certification or Training Needed – Globally
After pressing the ‘Deploy’ button on the Toughsat TS2 controller, the dish will raise and auto acquire the satellite signal and in minutes will automatically create a broadband Wi-Fi hotspot. Connect any wireless-capable device such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, or VoIP phones. No other interaction is required and no training or certification is required for use. To stow the dish, simply press the ‘Stow’ button.

Dual Matrix Service: A Fully Redundant Satellite Infrastructure
Ground Control’s two North American teleports service two different high-performance satellites (Galaxy 18 and SES2) that operate independently of each other. With the Dual Matrix service, a single mobile satellite dish may connect with either of the satellites at any time, no matter the plan they subscribe to.
