Someone in my building mentioned signing up with WildBlue and I have not heard any complaints from him so far. I don't know what the latency is like, I don't think his suspected typical activities would reveal it.

I've heard WildBlue is better, I've not used it, but I know that Skype and video conference calls don't work with their service as the latency is way too high. -t On Nov 5, 2007, at 10:15 AM, Lee A Duynslager wrote: >> I have a faculty member who would have to pay a considerable amount of >> money approx. $2K to have Millenium cable run out to their rural home. >> I was wondering if any of you have any experience with Wild Blue High >> Speed Internet Service or know of anybody who does? >> http://www.wildblue.com/ >> >> Thank You in Advance, >> Lee Duynslager -- Troy Murray Developer Michigan State University Biomedical Research and Informatics Center (BRIC) 100 Conrad Hall East Lansing, MI 48824 Phone: 517-432-4248 Fax: 517-353-9420 E-mail: [log in to unmask] Calendar HTML - http://www.icalx.com/html/troymurray72/month.php?cal=BRIC+Work iCalendar - http://www.icalx.com/public/troymurray72/BRIC%20Work.ics
