I signed up with Exede (formerly Wildblue) through ViaSat this last October for a two year contract. They have these 10GB, 15GB and 25GB plans. I upgraded one step at a time. Looking over the contract I found out that I was a heavy user. Before satellite Internet I was a normal user. laugh Which means I get four quality days of fast Internet. Faster than what I had on the telephone DSL. But then it goes to dial-up speed for the rest of the month. Except for midnight to 5AM when it allowable to download. If you download; Listen to music or watch video you will want to do it then. Otherwise, You will be real disappointed. You pay for a whole month but according to them you get a free usage meter. In other other words, In my opinion, You pay for a whole month but get the four good days. I could say it totally sucks but then Robin I could use you words, "What do I know?" laugh
