One Satellite service i had was ok, Starband but they had some damn problems with a hardware but the service was pretty good the shitty thing about satellite was if you get a bad storm you loose your connection ;)
DirectTv I used was pretty decent still the bad weather shit gets irratiting but it works better then old Copper dialup :) Bill Wheatley Director of Development Certified Advanced ColdFusion 5 Developer AEPS INC Allaire ColdFusion Consulting Partner www.aeps.com www.aeps2000.com 954-472-6684 X303 ICQ: 417645 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Angel Stewart" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Community" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, November 09, 2001 11:21 AM Subject: Satellite Internet. > Well..since I am in Trinidad, my options for Broadband are very limited. > > So we decided to go with a Satellite Internet package.
