I'm thinking of buying a cottage in a very remote part of Clare which is not - and is unlikely to be due to its location - ever on the national grid! There is a stream close by which is an option for water-generated electrical power, and there is a further option of a diesel generator.
I've noticed a few threads here about areas in Mayo not having Broadband. The auctioneer advises that for this Clare location I would "need to be on Satellite Broadband".
Two questions. Is "satellite" broadband different to "ordinary" broadband (be gentle with me - I'm only a girl and don't have boy-genes for IT). Second question, would there be any difficulties due to spinning my own electricity, so to speak. Would it be sufficient?
