Between 17,000 and 18,000 miles per hour in earth orbit.
A satellite has to maintain 1800miles/hr. around the Earth. If its speed were to speed up the satellite would fly off in to space. If the satellites speed were to slow down it would come crashing into Earth.

A satellite signal will be a radio signal. And a radio signal in space travels at the speed of light.

A satellite in a closed orbit has the greatest speed when it's closest to the planet, and the lowest speed when it's farthest from the planet.

A satellite in an elliptical orbit gains speed as it draws closer to the central body and loses speed as it moves farther away from the central body.
It is possible. If you have a good computer, and your satellite provider is decent, then you can have high speed internet. However, you must specify what you feel is "high speed".
Globalstar Network is a satellite constellation for satellite phones and low-speed data communications. It is similar to the Iridium satellite constellation.
YES As height increases, speed of satellite decreases.
Satellite TV and High Speed Internet are bundles offered by the 2 major satellite tv providers in the US. The High Speed Internet via satellite package that they are offering is powered by WildBlue. Unfortunately, there is still no news if they are going to combine the service into 1 satellite dish. If you get satellite tv and a satellite internet package it will require professional installation, separate equipments, and a separate satellite dish.
The velocity of the satellite along with the earths gravitational pull work together to keep a satellite from either flying out into space or burning up in the atmosphere. They have to launch a satellite at a precise speed to make sure that the speed at which the satellite falls to earth matches the earth's curvature. The speed is 8000 meters a second.
