I use Hughes satellite everyday.  It's better than dialup.  Wildblue was
supposed to be better, but the more I read, the more I think it was just
because there were fewer users.



Is the service reliable?

Currently the home in question has a cable connection, but the service is
terrible; intermittent and with high latency.  The cable company won't do
anything more than they already have.  It is too far from the local CO for
DSL.

Speed is not critical, but it has to work.

Thanks.
