Yes 149 activation fee 9.95 monthly lease fee and 49.99 month 10 gb data cap 79.99 month 15 GB data cap 129.99 month 25 gb data cap. Also seen 49.99 for 7 gb data cap and 54.99 for 10 gb data cap. Looks like it has about 600-800 ms latency and tesymy.net shows speed test at around 10-14 mg From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of Greg Ihnen Sent: Wednesday, February 29, 2012 8:10 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] Excede (viasat-1) Satalitte Internet I'm not familiar with them but that service has got to have bandwidth caps like DirecWay.

Re: [WISPA] Excede (viasat-1) Satalitte Internet
I have been trying to find out if it's possible get service on this bird myself. We have a remote location where a lot of people can't really install their own dish (Dish size, look angle, trees). Viasat-1 has a spot beam that should hit them. We were trying to find out if it was possible to purchase multiple subscriber packages for a single connection, since they have no real ISP plan. No one has been able to come up with anything yet, most didn't return our inquiry. We are willing to pay for the service if they can figure out how to provide it. So if anyone makes any progress on Viasat-1 other than the single subscriber packages, please let us know. - Dan On 3/1/2012 7:56 AM, Terry White wrote: Yes 149 activation fee 9.95 monthly lease fee and 49.99 month 10 gb data cap 79.99 month 15 GB data cap 129.99 month 25 gb data cap.

Re: [WISPA] Excede (viasat-1) Satalitte Internet
It still has exceedingly bad latency just like any other satellite service, but the capacity figures are true (at least until those spot beams become more saturated) Also watch out for the bandwidth caps, and contract terms. I'm not sure I would use Skype or Vonage on a service like that.
