    Wild Blue

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    I have read the site a little bit and it seems to be ur basic satellite service. Cept there 512k download cost 49.99$ and i paid 59.99 permonth for direcpc and it would run about 1.5mb sometimes more ,Wild blue has a F.A.P (fair access policy) as with any satellite service

    i don't use satellite anymore because its not worth the money it cost. But if u only need to d/l smaller files and don't plan on playing games/ checking e-mail fast u could give it a shot ....but its not worth the money but thats my opinion.

    Best reguards,

    Tim

    512K upload Satellite ?

    is it true ? www.groundcontrol.com check that site out.

    some stats from webpage

    What is Advanced Satellite Connectivity?

    Many satellite providers will deliver fast download speeds, but with upload speeds ranging from 20 to 100 Kilobits per second (twice the speed of a dial-up modem), a company network will simply bog down. Galileo delivers actual upload speeds of 450 to 500 Kbps assuring your company network stays productive for one low fixed monthly price.

    Galileo Features:

    High-Speed satellite connectivity at less than terrestrial data line pricing for 1 to 40 networked users. Pricing & Packages

    Upload speeds normally between 450 and 500Kbps on Premium. (What does

    Normally and on premium mean? LOL)

    Download speeds near 1540Kbps on Premium Galileo.

    Historic performance... over 99.9% uptime in the last since July of 2003.

    Latency Optimized - High quality for VPN and VOIP Satellite Telephone communication.

    Powerful 2 Watt satellite transmitter for all weather performance.

    Web configurable gateway/satellite modems.

    VOIP Satellite Telephone Service ($20 extra)

    If they totally stop trying to make satellite internet better. I think that's crap because cable and dsl users pay what 35$ a month? I paid 100$ for a year and then 50$ a month you think they could find the funds to make it better. Satellite has the worse upload and cost  way more than any other residential broadband. But im in the sticks so i have no choice. You would think with technology today every one in the u.s. could have broadband upload and download. Look at  england,,German, and china they are all pretty much fully covered with broadband availability. And the main reason i believe i read somewhere is because all of them countries had made plans for mass broadband expansion in which im sure they had to dip into their countries funds but still at least they have a "BROAD" span of broadband coverage. Makes me sick Lol but anyways enough cryin. No one cares about people in the boonies when it comes to broadband we get screwed we pay more for less. which it may cost more for them to supply it to us.  But i dunno im just a long time gamer that's tired of the 400 ping LOL well imma go before i write a book.
