Satellite Broadband Usage Caps > I know hughesnet is not very user friendly

said by cypherstream:

My Bosses boss has a cabin in the middle of nowhere and this is his only choice besides dialup. Even with dialup he can't just have the normal cheap phone line plan because the closest earthlink number would be long distance. He has a Cingular pcmica card for internet when traveling, but there's no cell phone coverage at the cabin. Heck his cabin doesn't even have a street number. It's a road, and all of the roads to get there don't even have names. You have to look for those little SR signs which only stick out of the ground 36 inches at most.

So he has the HughesNet. Boy what a P.O.S. At least he can get to our exchange OWA e-mail. He's not very technical so I don't think he'll hit FAP much, if ever. I think he uses the internet is really used for a few hunting / fishing sites and strictly business.
