Fw: Satellite Broadband and Citrix

[Gareth Cook <g@xxxxxxx>]

Anything that requires a lot of ACKs is really going to struggle with high
latency satellite connections  - raw downloads with a download manager
speed along nicely. Sure that a leased line or ISDN 24hr link would not be
better ?

[ukha_d] Satellite Broadband and Citrix
.
Category:



Hi all,

A friend of mine has just discovered that she's too far from the
exchange to get ADSL, so that scuppers that plan :-(

Trying to work out whether there _are_ any decent alternatives, and
wondering whether satellite is an option.

Here's the monkey - a lot of what she uses her 'net connection for is
talking to an NFuse/Citrix server, so lots of low latency
applications.

Any comments on whether that's viable with satellite, and how much
the different options cost?

Regards,

Mark
