I used to, pre-22 floods.

It was slow, high latency with poor support.

Ended up shelling out $3000 for a roof mounted antenna with a mobile signal booster pointed at a tower 30km away.

Which was way better until they shutoff 3G and didnt bother to replace it with anything. The 4G signal is much noisier and hugely congested.

The skymuster gear is gathering dust.
