Does the Aussie Broadband service need a line-of-site or is it limited by distances like other broadband systems?
It requires line of site from the dish to the satellite in the sky, and the only relevant distance is that to the satellite, which is similar for everyone. Therefore it is only in areas where things such as trees or buildings obstruct the line of site to the sky, that receiving a signal may be an issue. A good Aussie Broadband service signal is available almost everywhere in Australia.
