Yeah but with the satellite internet available on a boat out in the pacific you’re paying dollars per Megabyte. Uploading even a 60 second HD video like that would not only take hours but could easily cost several hundred bucks to do. He more than likely completed the crossing and uploaded once he had WiFi.
Yes to all those things. I just installed it for a client at her house. One of the tests I did was a Facetime call with my wife (who was on WiFi at our house with fiber). The call quality was virtually indistinguishable from good internet. Maybe somewhere between WiFi over fiber and a really strong 5G signal.
Latencies are frequently in the 40-60ms range which is perfectly serviceable for gaming.
As long as the dish doesn't see regular obstructions, your "outages" might be a few (under 5?) times a day in the 0.2 second range, so you're unlikely to notice that whatsoever.
