Satelite, erk, expensive!
statellit isn't *that* expensive these days. inface, i've been dealign with a few companies who have been given it for free as part of an rural regeneration business thing, not sure on the exact details. if you live outside of an ADSL area, there are cwertian situations businesses can apply for grants. The only thign is the horrible support for *nix unless it's an external router with ethernet prot. we're offering satellite ADSL as of next month (when BT finally sort thigns out, supprise supprise ;p). The cost per month is fair bit less than standard ADSL, but install costs can be a bit big, though renting the equipment is really not too expensiive. main problem is ACK spoofing - 600+ ms is quiet normal, urghghhg. i'll probably get a satellite link here as soon as BT let us place orders, mainly for reasons of "testing". mmm, 1 ADSL, 1 cable, and 1 satelillite link. who said i was a bandwidth whore ? ;-) ~ Theo - -- Theo Zourzouvillys <theo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> <http://theo.me.uk/> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9ke5Z448CrwpTn6YRAi3pAJ45aY7NfwcXrpTiw+DUkC6YRYnIMwCgggUu y3+g9XpnF9lr+nFJCUac3OU= =FdZt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
