Unfortunately, Infocom DSAT and the other satellite service from Philweb
requires a dial-up connection for upstream. The wireless connection is
only good for downloading. :( And I think you might have a hard time
using their hardware on Linux. I think the dial-up upstream connection
is using some kind of a proprietary protocol. :(

I think Dream is also offering wireless broadband but I don't know if
they cover Bulacan. However, the hardware is Windows only.

There's also Meridian Telekoms. It's only available on Metro Manila,
Cebu City and Davao City. I have no news if their equipment works with
Linux though.
