over a “two-way” satellite system?
Since “two-way” satellite systems are not standard based, FTP and POP e-mail is very unreliable. Our “one-way” satellite system is less expensive than a “two-way” system. Severe weather conditions can affect any satellite based system. In fact, the end-user of a “two-way” satellite system can experience a complete loss of connection. A “one-way” satellite system uses both the satellite link and a redundant terrestrial telephone link to the internet. This means that the end-user connection may temporarily slow down in the case of very severe weather conditions rather than lose connection.
