High-Speed Internet Access

[Jason Riedel]

Satellite Two-Way, if you are reffering to Spring Broad Band it works
great. The only issue I have is I get NO UPLOAD. I mean it's 2 way, but
it's slower then dialup upstream. Max I would say I have gotten 10K a
second up maxed out. Now downstream is absolutely wonderful and I
haven't found anything that compares aside from hard core 4 digit valued
lines. However, if it is sprint your going for there are 2 things you
need to know. 1 is if you run servers like I do the upload is really
ugly to work with, 2 is that sprint doesn't appear to be accepting new
customers. As a side note although sprint gives me good speeds, even if
I pay more they won't let me have higher upstream, so I will leave them
when my contract is up, and join with Qwest.

Thanks,
Jason Riedel aka YpCat

I'm to the point where dial-up isn't cutting it anymore, and where I
live I
have been promised by qwest that DSL will be available soon (over 18
months
now).  So I have two options that I am aware of: Satellite Two-Way or
Cox
Internet.  I'm aware of the transition problems that Cox is having with
their service, so I would like to avoid those until they stabilize, so
my
question is does anyone currently use Satellite and what their thoughts
are
on it?
