Here in eastern North Carolina, we can only get "Speeds up to 12Mbps" and
it gets throttled after 35 or 40 GB of data.
Per the not so small print just below the pricing:
Depending on the specific unlimited data service plan available at your
location, after you use the following amount of data, we
I waded around for awhile and found all the fine print for the old plans,
but cannot find it for the new viasat2 plans https://viasat.com/legal

I cannot find any fine print on their website, aside from the fact that
video is limited in speed. Overages do not exist with them anymore from
what I am told.

12Mbps - $50 ($70 after
Those are not exactly unlimited plans. They are "unlimited"
plans. Key point is the quotes. The different plans recognize
video streaming and limit it to lower data rates. There is also a
cap on what actually constitutes "unlimited" for each plan. You
need to read
What is the pricing/speed on the unlimited? It's either going to have to be
high priced or their speeds are going to go to crap once they get loaded
down.

Viasat2 has unlimited data plans now. We have actually had two customers
switch from our service just for the unlimited data, since we only allow
500GB per month. One of them came from satellite and then went back due to
overages.

1) Up to 1 Gbps or more, if you have the budget for a large o3b earth
station.
2) o3b is around 150ms, absolute lowest you'll see for geostationary 1:1
SCPC is about 492ms
3) Totally depends on how it's engineered for fade margin.
4) Depends on money, again.
Your questions are sort of like ask

It is the ~23,000mi orbit geostationary birds that kill latency.
When a ping to a terrestrial server has to travel >90,000mi, the
latency will never be better than half a second. Musk wants to do a
large constellation of low orbit birds.

These days speeds are OK if you are not being throttled for too
much data. I've seen ~~ 20 Mbps download and maybe 3-4 Mbps
upload.
Latency still sucks. 700-800 ms if there is no congestion.
Multi-second latency if there is congestion.
Depends on where you are a

They have gotten better with speeds. You get whatever you can afford for the
most part.
Latency is horrible. 800 mS is what it was the last time I played with one.
I did not notice weather or sun outages. But I used it for telemetry, I was
not streaming netflix on it.
