Re: Residential VSAT experiences?

[Hugo Slabbert]

Personally, 500-700ms of delay is well within distinguishable range and causes challenges in verbal communication. If the speakers are both expecting and accustomed to delay like that (e.g. sailors that are used to being hundreds/thousands of miles away from anywhere and any other comms solution sucks anyway), it could be workable.

Just my 2c.

For regular consumer/business voice applications, 100ms and lower is decent, but above that starts to get into various degrees of suckage.

I never had good luck with VSAT and SIP. Maybe you had a better kit than I
did :)

Interesting that you say that about sip. We had a client that would use it
for sip on ships all the time. It wasn't the best but it worked. Ping times
were between 500-700ms.

SIP will suck. VPN will suck. RDP will suck.

Have you looked to see if you have any local wireless ISPs in your area?
Hit me up offlist if you want me to check for you.
