I am leaving the comforts of civilization behind and
moving to a house FAR from Cable or DSL connectivity.
(In the Lancaster-Amanda area, back in the woods.)
Does anyone out there have experience with the
"alternate" sources of Internet connectivity for the
wired guy? Satellite, plain old dialup with an
extremely good provider, or something else? What has
worked well, and what hasn't?
I'm currently using 2 IPs from Road Runner, one for my
Coyote Linux box, and one for my personal webserver.
Keeping this configuration would make my life a LOT
easier, so multiple IPs are a bonus.
I'm not a major bandwidth-hog. I download a few ISOs
and tarballs now and then, but I don't play network
games or bother with file-sharing. Mostly I web-surf
and login to a remote machine or two using ssh.
A constant-on state would be preferred.
Linux friendliness (or, at least, tolerance) is very
much desired.
Any Linux folk out there in the 740 area code with an
opinion?
TIA...peter
