How fast is the DIRECWAY System?
The experience with DIRECWAY high-speed Internet is astonishing. When comparing typical activities with a dial-up service based on standard dial-up connection at 28.8Kbps, the difference in the amount of time you’ll be waiting for what you want is night and day. DIRECWAY speeds are based on download speeds of up to 500Kbps, but not guaranteed. You can download software upgrades in just minutes, versus up to an hour. There’s no more waiting for Web pages to fully finish loading; they are typically done within a couple of seconds. Getting your favorite song can be done in less than the song’s length rather than three times as long. As you can see this is a huge improvement!
DIRECWAY Home and Professional service plans provide 500Kbps download and 50Kbps upload speeds. It is helpful to understand that all Internet technologies (satellite or land-based) share available network bandwidth in one way or another. And as a result it is common to experience speed variations between busy times and quiet times.
