I've got a client who is interested in getting satellite internet access
(he lives on a ranch). He's got a linux fileserver that he'd like to make
his firewall/gateway. Anyone have any recommendations for satellite
systems that work with linux (or are OS independent)? He looked at
DirecTV's offering, but it's a USB connection and specialized windows
software only. Any ideas/recommendations/anecdotes welcome.
