Is Spacenet one of their business satellite services? I'm a user of the Starband service and I get pretty good speeds and feeds on the satellite, although telnet is a drag. Starband uses a page accelerator technology that greatly increases performance. The following link has a good technical explanation of the HPA host page acceleration and the RPA remote page acceleration. Sincerely, Dennis J.

Course they could lower that to ~500-1000 if they cache on the sat. :) -Al -----Original Message----- From: Dennis Dayman [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, August 23, 2001 3:05 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Is anyone using GILAT's "Spacenet" service > 500ms RTT which I do not believe. Try more like 500-2000 I've been on both Telstar 7 and GE satellites in their network and it's bad. NOC/CS is a pain to work with. Major problem though. Not only do you have to deal with RAIN fade at your locations, but they only have one uplink facility and when they get "covered" everyone in the network is dead. They have no back-up's. You have to RPA/HPA (proxy) all your HTML traffic and E-Mail, FTP, TELNET are VERY SLOW since it doesn't use their HTML proxy. --------------------------- Dennis Dayman [email protected] Voice 972-772-7890 FAX 972-772-3337 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ What goes up, must come down.
