verdict: total shit.
weather related outages often, upload speed usually slower than dialup. FAP is a joke, you surf for a few hours and suddenly your download is capped down to dialup speeds.

oh, and forgot to mention. you will need to be on the phone with tech support every month if you are trying to make your living on the internet with satellite connectivity.
and tech support is mind bogglingly, bad, waiting 30 minutes on the speakerphone listening to the fucking "your call is important to us" horseshit while being forced to listen to some jackoff upsale, and then finally when you get a live person, it is some turban head in bangladesh who doesn't know the earth is round and can't speak english.
total fucking hype.
however, directTV is quite good.
