The latency will kill you. If the satellite were directly overhead, that's over 20,000 miles. Packet out to satellite, packet to earth station, latency there, ack back, ack to satellite, satellite to you - if all were perfect that's 80,000 miles roughly. Speed of light 186,000 miles per second. That's at least 1/2 second. Usually it's over 3/4 second. Worse than a satellite call to Europe from US. -- Larry rapp at lmr dot com >> -----Original Message----- >> From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ross Lindahl >> Sent: Monday, April 17, 2006 6:06 PM >> To: KXT Mailing list >> Subject: KX-T: IP Phones >> >> I have a client that is interested in connecting one phone >> from his office which has a tda200 v2.0 to his home.
