Hey,
I was wondering if this was fast broadband. I come across a ISP called Wexford Broadband.

They offer Satellite broadband, which is all I can get down here in Kilmore Quay, is satellite broadband anygood?

Download Speed = 2MB
Upload Speed = 512KB
Contention Ratio = 25:1 maximum
No Phone Line Required

Is that fast? All I need it for is looking at websites, but I would like to be able to look at trailers/movies and have the images loaded fast. Plus I sometimes would download programs from the internet and I'd not want them to have to take hours to download.

Thanks.
