vSat satellite products are a stand alone solution requiring no traditional internet connection method. A connection via a LAN port on the vSat subscribers computer is made to the Sky Edge decoder which is connected to the satellite dish. Internet requests are made by the subscriber bouncing of an orbiting satellite Bordernet's earth station hub. The hub then delivers the internet request back to the subscriber at broadband speed.

Book sizes are based on the practice of folding a large sheet of paper to create several pages. A traditional sized sheet (e.g., 25 x 38) which is folded twice to create four pages yealds a quarto (4to) sized book (measuring 12.5 x 19), a sheet folded three times to create eight pages yields an octavo (8vo) sized book (measuring 9.5 x 12.5), and so on. If you're mathematical, you'll notice that the number of pages is two raised to the number of folds (2**3 = 8). See similar questions...
