Yes, we have the licence to operate in Cyprus!
There are limits on how much you can transfer. They vary from 1.5Gbytes to over 80Gbytes per month.
The beauty of the satellite connection is that it operates anywhere in Cyprus – even if you don’t have or can’t get a telephone line or GSM signal. Some of our customers live so far away from the major towns they don’t even have electricity or water connected to their homes!
Satellite is also an excellent stand-by or backup solution if you need 24/7 connection and the Cyta service goes down (as it did at the weekend).
If they dont have electricity how do you connect the modem ? they use a generator ??
