Title: Satellite Broadband? Post by: PennyTurtle on January 09, 2008, 06:58:38 pm Does anyone know the full name of the company that can supply broadband via satellite?
I know the company name is 'Blue' something! Title: Re: Satellite Broadband?

A little warning about satellite broadband is that if you don't get a full duplex link, i.e. in and out via satellite, you'll still be stuck with a dialup outbound link. Last time I looked full duplex satellite was just under $300 per month. Also, now that we've started to get some rain, and those with Austar and Foxtel satellite can tell you too, is that when you get a decent amount of rain within around 50km, you'll get a lot of breakup/loss of signal with due to the size of the dish. Get a 2 or 3 metre sized dish, and you won't get anywhere near the same sorts of issues with rain, but who really wants a 3 metre dish in your backyard ? Title: Re: Satellite Broadband?
