The problem here are two-fold: The first is that it is not two
way, and requires a POTS line for upstream. Not that I have all that much
need for upstream, but I would like more than 33.6k. Other problem is that
they only offer USB or PCI interface cards (Dish feed in, modem feed out),
which I Linux does not support (at least the last time I checked). This is
a very M$ Windows centric service. :(
Thanks for the suggestion anyway.
