On Thursday I finally had my broadband satellite installed. It's a
DW4020 from Skycasters ( http://skycasters.com ) and it works
beautifully. It's a bit pricey, ($1,800 installed) and there's a
noticeable delay of 1-2 seconds, but once a data stream is initiated it
runs very well. I have the 400k down, 128k up package and it's $129 per
month with a static ip. Knock $10 off for dynamic. It comes with a 4
port hub that will do NAT if you're dynamic ip'd. I have absolutely zero
problems running all my boxen behind a single system doing masquerading.
I was a bit concerned about getting my syslogs to relay, but even that
was a breeze. Luckily, I didn't have to fund the whole thing, or the
monthly fees, and it sure beats dialup. Now to set up a FreeS/WAN
connection to my mirror server.
