Re: Tachyon Works

Just wondering what kind of up/down speed your getting with the Tachyon. How does that differ from direct PC. Im very concerned with the up speed. Is there a lot of packet loss or lag time with the satellite? Have you tried it with online gaming, or video? Can't find pricing on their site, is it affordable? Thanks....

Tachyon is considered commercial grade 2-way and your monthly cost is dependant upon your bandwidth requirements. As with other VSAT carriers, realtime apps like gaming, VoIP, streaming a/v are problems due to inherent latency of sending a data stream 44k miles..
