Why shouldn I go with DirectWay or Starband?
“One-way” is a faster, more reliable, economical service with better customer care. It’s faster and more reliable because “one- way” doesn’t experience the same time-out delays caused by “two-way” approach of uploading requests to the satellite. Satellites are really designed to broadcast not receive information. One-way takes advantage of satellite’s strengths by using it for downloading of information only. The uploading of information is handled over the telephone line. As you know, when you’re using a dial-up service, you are rarely waiting to upload your page requests or emails. All the waiting time is based on downloading the information over your telephone line.
