Re: That $800 T1 Line
5meg plan for probably $300 a month...no thanks.
And with that $300 a month you get caps, 1200ms latency, horrible tech support and horrible speeds during peak hours. |

2 edits | The on-board switching, has the possiblity of cutting that latency, possibly in half.
Also, a lot of you are saying "no thanks". But do realize, that this is only the next best thing to dialup--which is still a lot of folks' only other alternative.

So what you're saying is, since they have a monopoly for high-speed, they can charge those folks whatever they want and put whatever restrictions they want--- I see. |

Since it's their satellite, YES.
Feel free to build and launch your own satellite and offer whatever you want for $19.99/month.  |

Google is your friend.. "satellite internet" - and then also look at »en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopoly ... check it out.
void of all that.. see the other two replies above mine as well. |
