The latency is about the same as a Dialup connection
How can that be? A satellite link has to have *at*least* one second
latency [if there are _no_ other delays at all in the connection, and I'm
told by colleagues with satellite links that 2-3 seconds is more the
norm]]. Meanwhile I'm running ~200ms RTTs for most of the time on my
dialup...
Did you have the type of service where both upload and download
was via satellite? I had the cheaper version where the upload link
was via dialup. It had only about 60% of the latency of the
two-way satellite version.
