I was wondering what steps I need to take to get wireless (Satellite?) internet on my laptop. I have no knowledge on wireless internet.
The computer is an iBook (500 MHz) btw.

I think what he means is mobile web. A way to do this is through a cell phone, but unless you want to pay through the nose ($80/month for unlimited access), you won't get more than 14.4Kbps, and even then it'll use the cell minutes. If you want more info reply and I'll describe my experience with this (pretty good, but slow).
There is a difference between "wireless networking" and "internet via satellite".
If you want tot internet via the satellite you'll be needing alot more than Airport. Satellite internet is a good alternative if there's no DSL/Cable internet service in you area. For consumer satellite internet, there stiil is usually somekind of dial-up internet connection necessary via the telephone-line for your upload data.

Sorry for not clarifying. How would I go about getting satellite internet access? And How much would it cost. I haven't been able to find much on the internet. What components would I need?
