I'm considering a job that will allow me to work from home that requires internet service. I currently have DSL but the connection at times is less than stellar, especially when I tie into my current companies intranet. I continually get knocked off and usually only have about 5 minutes to work before I get disconnected. Cable is out of the question cause I live in the boonies. I am considering satellite internet and wanted to get some feedback.
It appears through searching that HughesNet and WildBlue are the preferred systems. VSAT appears to be somewhat pricey for a home office. Currently thinking of a minimum dl speed at 1.0Mbps, ul at 256Kbps is fine. The occasional storm does not factor. I would appreciate any and all feedback for those that currently use it.
