I hadn't been reading this thread til now.  Are these satellite services, your talking about, commercial or residential?

I am currently using Starband and have been fairly happy with them but they require the modem to be connected to a Windoze box so I need to have a standalone Win2K box, Windoze Firewall and antivirus and so on and so forth.  I would like to go back to my OS/2 Server and Injoy firewall.   Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Sam

Julian, we started a discussion some time ago about broadband options
up there. I don't recall where we left off, but I would recommend
looking into a good commercial-grade satellite service, such as
http://www.skycasters.com.    
Look than also at UnaSat, better priced, and great quality
We use this to feed our hotspot system in the Dominican Republic (26
spots in the south)
and is much cheaper than iDirect, while the quality is not noticeable less.
Surfbeam modems with DOCSIS 1.01

main supplier for the USA is www.motosat.com , for information you can
look at our website as well
