If by "on the canal" you mean "while travelling", the satellite systems I've looked into wouldn't be an option. Both systems (that I've looked at) available here in the states require fairly large, permanently mounted dishes. The other problem is they are partners with "the evil empire," and they require that the modem be connected to a windows box. So I have a little 233 sadly running win2k that provides internet connection to the rest of my network. (totally bass-ackwards I know) if you still want more info: www.starband.com --Gina
