Before I installed a satellite system I was using Orange via a phone line. Being at the end of a 6km line I found the performance and reliability very poor, in fact during the school holidays 2014, I found it almost impossible to use the Internet at all. Since my installation I have been disappointed with the performance of the Internet. Most of the time the connection is slow to very slow, inferior to my previous server. At no point has it ever been better. I am also astonished to discover that even in a gentle rain I loose complete contact. Either the WWW is slowing down to the point of becoming useless or something else is going on to encourage people to buy faster systems ( not an option for me in France ) The fact that I can use up my prepaid quota on my iPad within 2 weeks while hardly using it leaves me unhappy.
