Comment very high and unstable latency (Score 1) 259
DirecPC has an everchanging latency. depending on the kind of modem you use, you can use either an ethernet port or USB. some of the USB ones can be modified to use Ethernet (there's a port inside that the USB part plugs into)
best ping time you're going to see over satellite is about 500ms, more like 800ms average. pages load quickly, but there's that pause with every click. games dont work very well over it, but some games are actually playable. the user experience isnt very good though. I've seen 80k sustained downloads over the standard package.
downside as previously mentioned is that you are limited to a certain amount of data for certain parts of the day before they chop your download speeds considerably.
