RE: FN-FORUM Satellite Broadband

date posted 3rd September 2002 17:13

The whole thing is free for one whole year.

There is a latency but for what I need it isn't a problem, I'm just pleased
to be able to download quickly.

I'll report more detail later. sorry must dash.

Stuart.

Your whole package was paid for? Does that include the £200/month fees?
I've been offered £700, which just about covers the installation of the
hardware - there'll still be the £70/month subscription fee on top of
that. Still tempted though,

Hutch

I have had the Aramiska system running for the last few days and have
found
it to work very well, no loss of service that I've noticed. On the
Business-Insight scheme we weren't given an option, then again it is
completely free. I have found that downloading is easily 10x faster than
my
isdn. What I'm saving on my office isdn, home highway and BT anytime
services will pay for the second year's subscription. I have decided to
ditch home highway and play with the kids and talk to my wife on a
night.

We'll never get anything better round these parts for a very long time
so
I'm pleased to have it.

Stuart.

OK. Just got a letter of acceptance for the Remote Area Broadband
Inclusion Trial and I know a few other peeps here have signed up/already
got it installed too. I opted for BT on the basis that Amariska cap
bandwidth at 1Ghz or 2Ghz depending on which of their cheapest packages
you sign up for. So what's the general view on the service? Is it good?
Is it really worth five times as much as a DSL line? Should I sign on
the dotted line or hang onto my ISDN line,

Hutch
