bcos ive got like a spare satellite dish and so have some of my friends i was wondering if it was possible to make a satellite link to eachother.. lol because then as satellite connections are really fastw we could send eachother stuff fast and it would be quality :cool:

Don't think so.
I'm just guessing, but you'd need something to control the satellites input/output etc.
Meh, who am i to talk, i dont know anything about satellites

Lol yeah youd obviously need a errm modem kinda thing, lol imagine if it worked then i'd position myne so i can recieve signals from like usa and stuff :cool:
then tell people to send me gigs of data over the satellite connection :P

Actually i've just thought of something.... you've got a dish, i dont think you can send dish to dish, you'd need some kind of reciever... and to send across to the states.... you'd need an actual satellite ;)

you will also need a big back balance to rent out Satellite time.

You will need a Transmision dish. a normal satalite dish cannot send data.

a 100mb leased line would be cheaper.

shame, would be cool if it was easy tho :P

rofl i'll just go and buy one of them FAT motorised dishes that are like to transmit data over the whole world and fit it in my back garden :cool:
