Re: Satellite Internet Service

["Art Tostaine, Jr." <atostaine@xxxxxxxxx>]

I use Hughes satellite everyday.  It's better than dialup.  Wildblue was
supposed to be better, but the more I read, the more I think it was just
because there were fewer users.

Windows VPN doesn't work on satellite.  too much lag.

Strangely, Cisco VPN client does work.  Although slowly.
