Genstate and Film

Genstate has provided internet access to large and small film productions. Most recently, service was provided to HBO (big budget series) and Disney (both feature film and limited series). Our technicians have the experience to get internet access to the most “impossible” areas, while staying out of the way of production crew.

Satellite Internet

Genstate Connect utilizes the Starlink satellite network. The Starlink satellite dishes connect to the satellite(s) that are passing overhead. This allows us to utilize the system anywhere we can see the sky. We have used Starlink in the middle of downtown Calgary, deep in the forest at the foot of the Rockies, and even as far north as the city of Grande Prairie with great reception every time. In southern Alberta we get download speeds of 50-150 Mb/s.

Pricing

Equipment and service is $250 for the first day, $100 per each day afterwards (in the same location). Setup of the system, or tear-down, is $250.
