[AccessD] OT - Internet Access

Pretty reliable.  The problem comes in when you try VPN mainly.  There is a
noticeable trip time for the signal on satellite, so VPN is difficult to
impossible.  Starband is the service I was using.  I switched to a wireless
high speed internet after a problem with the satellite in December.

How reliable is satellite?

..if you've got a phone line you can get a half decent link through a Direct
satellite link ...not as fast or reliable as DSL or cable but a damn sight
better than dial-up.
