I've used the direcway system and have mixed reactions...

We cannot get DSL/Cable out here so it was the only choice. The dish was $600 or so and is also a tv receving dish... The systems used to be dial up for outgoing but now tranmit two way. Speeds for normal browsing are still lame but file downloads are speedy. Clouds and bad weather can slow or stop internet availablity. Unfortunately dial up can be more stable.

My advice, never move to a house or area that you cannot get high speed cable or dsl. ever!
