I need reliable broadband Internet access (including fast upload) and telephony. Are there any suitable providers out there?

I am currently trying to set up a webcamera on a nature reserve in Ecuador (about 200km south of Guayaquil). The web-camera provides a live stream to a server in the UK.

Does anyone know if the current satellite connections in Ecuador are fast enough to do this? Any information that anyone has set up (or perhaps you have set up) a web camera site ...
