RebelYell,
I have no DSL or cable in my area but I have a satellite dish with Directv and satellite internet with DirecWay. They both use separate dishes when they were installed. Cost is $69 or $79/month for DirecWay. I get very good download speeds and it has been very reliable. I used to use Starband satellite internet system which was offered thru dish network at the time, but I had problems with what they said was due to "new" cell phone tower arrays in my area /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif. Thanks for the great picts of tractor & dog /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif. Make sure you keep him on heartworm preventative year round.
