Only one of the hosts he listed actually resolved to an IP address. But it's ping time is 40 to 60ms. The shortest ping time I have ever
gotten on Starband is 670ms. So that host must not be on a
geosynchronous satellite link.
iDirect and Nera (dvb-rcs/linux) have the shortest overall lagtime
between 480 and 520 msec
Unsasat (docsis/vxworks) is between 500 and 550
Direcway (dvb-rcs/vxworks) between 700 and 2000 (or worse)
Do any residential services use these satellites/providers for their service?
we have also 2 SIP voip lines running and the delays are not really
noticeable with iDirect, Nera and UnaSat
don't try such a service with DW or hughesnet, they have a widespread
name, but the qos is terrible, specially in the upload part
I'm pretty sure Starband monitors their network pretty closely and wouldn't allow that. I can't even do a VPN to work. Yet another reason I'm thinking making a change.
Thanks,
Sam
