RE: [leaf-user] satellite with bering
Hi Tony, No the satellite is not 2 way, we have to dial up to establish the link. There is no noticeable lag normally and the connection, for the most part, is quite fast. We do have some problems with the satellite path on occasions but I believe they are mostly caused by the ISP and weather conditions.

What about the lag? Is there one? If so, how long is it usually? I am happy with cable modem right now, but the idea of satellite, especially two way sat. with the same speed and low latency would be very interesting.

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. Matt Matt, actualy what you describe is aviable but is pricy. The standard install kit is $299. Which includes: 90cm dish, LNB, Install Kit (cable, sat finder), and a pci satellite reciever card (the biggest ticket items here). If you want the black box option it is $1149. There is also a usb recieviner that takes the place of the pci card but that does not make a lot of sence to me. It seem likly I will go down this road even if noone else has done it before unless something else more attractive shows up on the market. thanks Paonia --- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html
