Satelite is way better than it used to be, even in a thunderstorm it still works.

And that's from a MINI DISH from sky, internet ones are the bigger size

If my memory serves me correctly, without a huge dish you have to use a standark 56k modem for the uplink..... would make talking using skype etc.. very difficult as the round pi9ng times would cause momenteous lags... I just wish i could get 8mbit synchronus cable connection.. id shut moaning then lol
I think that's single way, I want it double way which is totally threw the dish

Re: What type of internet connection do you want, or prefer?

I'm on NTL 1Mbit but i want more upload so as to host a better game server with my friends. I want a connection that will allow me to watch tv through the net perfectly. no more satelite dishes and aerials. I want real time video chat with family. No blocks and fussy voice.
