A reconfigurable satellite access point including a transport-mounting structure and at least one antenna integrated with the transport-mounting structure, the transport-mounting structure allowing the satellite access point to be easily reconfigured between a shipping configuration and an deployed configuration, the satellite access point in the shipping configuration having a form factor of a shipping container which allows the satellite access point to be shipped to a remote satellite access site on earth and the satellite access point in the deployed configuration revealing the at least one antenna to the sky at the satellite access site. Further, a method for constructing and rapidly deploying a satellite access site, the method including integrating at least one antenna with a transport-mounting structure to create a satellite access point, configuring the satellite access point into a shipping configuration wherein the satellite access point has a form factor of a shipping container, shipping the satel
