First off, a belated Welcome to iRV2!

If you are talking about satellite internet, your main choices are Hughes or Starlink and both of them are expensive. Your best bet is to research cellular internet connections and a good resource for information is the RV Mobile Internet people. They have comparisons on different service providers in both cell and satellite forms. They have a paid service, but a lot of good information is free.

Satellite service is expensive. We use T-Mobile with an ATT backup phone using a SIM card purchased via internet. This has proven to be the bet coverage for us.

Do your homework and then decide which service fits your needs best. No one single service covers the entire USA.

Thank you so much, how much do you pay for this please?

As a full timer that works from my RV, I have found it advisable to have equipment that will allow you to utilize what ever internet signal that's available.
In my case, the backbone of my RV internet setup (LAN) is comprised of a Peplink cellular/modem router. I can connect via cellular service, RV park WiFi (when available) & Starlink.
As Lt. Dan suggested, take a look at the Mobile Internet Resource Center. Good info out there to help you get your hands around the technology available.
Lots of options are available.
