Title: sattelite internet Post by: WardenMac on February 17, 2002, 05:06:37 pm Does anyone know anything about the sat internet? Im going to purchase one, dont know anything about it though. Ive done some research and Im getting two way full duplex (I think). Im most curious about the latency, someone told me it would be fantastic downloading and uploading things, about 400k a sec. But Im most worried about latency, I heard on games like uo when your playing online, you can have a much as a two second delay. Can anyone confirm this? They say it has something to do with the signal from earth to bird, then from bird back to earth.
If I lay 700 bucks down on this thing and there is a two sec delay on my game, you may be reading about me on the news ;D. If someone knows about this, let me know Title: Re: sattelite internet Post by: Mr_Grenade on February 17, 2002, 09:52:32 pm http://www.dslreports.com/faq/satellite
