Though I don't have sattelite, I can take a few guesses.
So you can stop reading if you'd like :)

Anytime you try to connect pieces of a WAN that use
different protocols, ATM <--> Ethernet, X25 <--> Ethernet,
Frame Relay <--> ATM, Sattelite (?) <--> Ethernet,
DSL <--> Ethernet, as examples, you need a router.

So these companies rent us a black box and out of the
back end of that box comes a 10Base-T port, complete
with your traffic routed to you.

So then you just plug a CAT5 cable into nebulink's
router/receiver and then into your LEAF eth0.  Then
follow the usual setup described in the install.pdf,
as if you had DSL.

Well that's my guess.  It'll be interesting to read
any replies from people who know the hardware used.
