Boy, you talk about latency issues! I know the feeling. It wasn't far off from you. Talk about taking ten years to do anything. My 768/128 was more like 200/128!! Best yet,it took ten years to browse as my latency was crap. While this was DSL, and you are satellite, the dissatisfaction was no different.

Yah...try doing ANYTHING interactive on that. With satellite something as simple as logging into an HTTPS website becomes a painful experience.

Satellite is 100% coverage. Isn't that great? FCC should ban DSL and cable internet. Satellite rocks my socks!

And dialup gives you better latency and a real connection you can use 24/7 :p ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20253144 Sun, 30 Mar 2008 15:00:16 EDT Re: BS!!! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20253139 Siryak :

I agree unless that FAP thing didn't exist. Also people don't want to have to pay $80 (or whatever the price is now) for Satellite
IMO it will still be utter and complete crap because of the latency.

Deployment of broadband would suffer in every area if they had to pay the costs of getting satellite access like rural users do. Not to mention that lousy satellite service.

I STRONGLY beg to differ!!! "broadband deployment is active, vibrant and successful." Wrong again! Sorry but Satellite is a piss poor excuse for successful broadband deployment.
