Re: Satellite Internet
Wow! That's pretty impressive. It will be interesting to see how it goes over the next month. I guess one thing that you're not going to be able to test for a while is how it performs with cloud cover. But thanks for the update that gives some food for thought. Out of interest whereabouts are you? we're near Castelo Branco and in the mountains but we get satellite TV OK, so I guess sat internet would be ok.

Re: Satellite Internet
Korrect, thanks santaanita. I'm looking at satellite internet right now. Konnect have better deals than SkyDSL but satellite internet is quite expensive when you factor in the cost of the new equipment needed.
I am thinking of changing suppliers as I'm having hassle with MEO, even though I've been with them for ages. They don't like package changes at the end of contract periods and they are hopeless at communicating with their customers. Believe it or not, I cannot have a package without TV now. What nonsense! I hope to sort them out very soon but I have to admit that they have been giving me good, unlimited internet for 31 Euros per month till now and fibre cable is not far off in the Algarve countryside.
