Newbie, what Internet connection can I use

I am going to start my own legal IPTV service here in Spain showing free to air UK channels, from a 3.2 Metre satellite dish. TBS MOI Pro AMD IPTV streaming server is the hardware of my choice, I am looking at this with <4x quad satellite video cards. My customers will use their smart TV or a STB of some sort. I am looking to start the service with 40 SD TV channels. My question is what can I use as a starter for the Internet connection, can I use a standard domestic 1gb fibre optic connection or do I HAVE to go Point To Point?

This is a resurection of a project we started back in 2017, when Fibre Optic was not available in our area, which it is now. So we are back in action.

Hi Sir

How much it is depens on how many customers you want to support and what about the channels bit rate . take example 100xclients
every channels is about 4Mbps then need at least 400Mbps

Sorry Steven only just seen your reply. Yes I understood about the bandwidth needed, but somebody suggested to me that the Ping delay on a domestic Fibre Optic internet connection is too long, and could cause problems, what do you think?
