Why is there a requirement that the DIRECWAY system be professionally installed?
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requires that trained professionals install any 2-way satellite system. • What is transmission latency? Latency refers to the amount of time it takes a packet of data to travel across a network. With satellite service, that data must travel up to the satellite and back (about 45,000 miles). This round trip adds about a half a second delay to the total time your computer takes to communicate with a Website or host server. Most back-office applications, e-commerce transactions, and common business applications work very well over DIRECWAY. Business applications that require response times in fractions of a second (such as Web hosting, VoIP, and video conferencing) are not recommended over satellite. • Can I run a VPN using DIRECWAY for business? Yes, but running a VPN client over satellite is not an ideal configuration. If you choose to run VPN over satellite, your data speeds may be reduced by as much as 50-75%. You can restore your connection
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry Canada recommend that trained professionals install any two-way satellite system. FCC Regulations recommend that people aiming a dish be trained. Our training documentation includes a 56-page illustrated Quick Start Guide with a complete Troubleshooting section, a computer and satellite equipment checklist, and telephone support as long as you need it.
