I want POWER.... is there a rating I should look for ?

 

Have you considered Satellite BB .............. there are not many ISP's and BigBlu was recently bought out , but most (not all) use HYLAS satellites (Avanti HYLAS 1) which are geo's but based around the 18th meridian (18 degrees west) so a much higher angle from your dish, which is handy if you live in a valley ............ just a thought

 

Satellite BB is pretty much rock solid, you only lose it twice a year for an hour or so during the 'sun-out' period in spring and autumn ..........that is when the sun is directly behind the satellite in line with your dish ..............

It’s not just the angle of the hill that I live a third of the way up, it’s also the fact that I’m surrounded (back and sides) by mature trees. A satellite would have to point straight up. 
plus I’m not a fan of dishes slapped to the side of my home.

You want to try to scaffold a block of flats covered in dishes, enough to start a war
