I live in the "boonies" also. My only choice was dial up or satellite. I chose satellite. I have had very few problems with Direcway. Installation went smoothly and I have consistent speeds. True, not as fast as DSL but definitely better than dial up. As for FAP. I am on the computer almost all the time. I have never had a problem with FAP. I have downloaded programs, audio, video without being disconnected. The only problem is storms. When we get heavy rain, it will sometimes go out or get very slow. It clears up quickly though. I have not had any billing problems. I have the bill directly taken via credit card and it is done on the same day each month. No worries about being lost in the mail. Direcway is definitely not the best, but not the worst either.
