[AT] OT - Satellite Internet

[John Wilkens]

Warren, we've had Hughes satellite broadband service for several 
years due to a lack of cable in our rural area an have gotten very 
good service and support.  I've never experienced "maxing out" on 
downloads.  Our average download speed is about 1000 KBS and is due 
for a 25% speed increase any day now.   Wish we could get cable but 
sat. is a lot better than dialup!!   The only very rare problem we've 
experienced is with sticky snow buildup on the dish.   John W.
