My guess is a VPN to work once a week, so encryption and the lag and you know the rest, here on Hughesnet/Wildblue Isle.
edit: "Hughesnet/Wildblue Isle." : for all you young whipper snappers, a tv show called Gilligans Island, where they were ship wrecked and kept trying to get off the island but kept failing and were stuck there for 3 years and got ship wrecked there again for a couple of hours afterwards. Then freedom!!! Beautiful freedom!!!
