It sounds like the general concensus for Satellite type service is to go with DirecWay instead of Starband. The competition between the two has made each of them better. I believe that DirecWay may have the most recent advantage with stated support for MS-ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) and the slightly lower pricing. In addition to these factors Starband is also on the ropes, financially speaking. Dish Network (Echo Star) has been moving away from their partnership with Starband since pursuing the merger with DirecTV (Hughes). Don't think the long term prospects for Starband look very good, especially if the merger is approved. Since I am a current Starband user I keep watching to see when I will need to jump ship to DirecWay. Hate to see all the competition die leaving only one supplier in the market.
