Just got Direcway today

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Well, I live in BFE, so the only available high speed was satellite. Today I got Direcway installed and so far I'm not sure. I'm coming from slow-ass dial-up, so it's better than that, but it pales in comparison to a DSL connection I was using at another office. I guess I'll have to wait and see. I hope I didn't just fuck myself.

Anyone else here have this? Are there tweaks out there that I can use to improve the speed? I'm also looking for something in the background that i can use to see if my connection is active and working. Something like the little icon in the task bar that shows you when the connection is good and working.

I have it...had it for about a year and a half and let me tel you...I can't wait till I move into an apartment to get cable. Because I'm not a fan though it is serviceable for what I need I suppose.

They really need to work on a thing or two to make things work a little bit more smoother. I need a few less outtages than this gives me.

Yeah, that's kind of how I think it's going to go. SBC keeps telling me that they will have DSL in my area soon, but I've already been waiting two years, so I just got this stuff. It's doing OK with some things, but it seems to just stall after awhile. I don't know if it's me or the service.

Thanks for the response.
