So in the middle of South Dakota we don't have under sea cables connecting us to the internet, there are huge antennas (satellite antennas) that collect and transmit data. From those antennas the local infrastructure (copper cable and fiber) bring it to your home or wireless antennas(4G/5G & your modem to wifi router). Plus starlink (which is badass) that cuts out that infrastructure and results in way less errors, or packet loss, than "conventional" internet. The satellites are cheaper than laying cable across the country, which is expensive to repair.
