Afghanistan desert is the dustiest place ive ever seen - if you like dust storms and little whirlwinds every day. But all the dust wrecks satellite internet speeds. satellite internet maybe ok if conditions were clear. btw, I got that driver file i needed, thx to a great SCFN member for helping me out! -dave k :) _______________________________________________ SoCalFreeNet.org General Discussion List To unsubscribe, please visit: http://socalfreenet.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss_socalfreenet.org
