General discussion

satellite internet...

May 9, 2005 9:59PM PDT

I am so confused.
I want to travel Canada and the US and have my computer with me for internet access. I need the least expensive way to do this. My talks to Bell Canada Expressvu satellite dish brought interesting news and probably what I need for service and price. They say I can take the dish with me and receive partial service without a phone or full service with a phone (any phone) anywhere here in Canada. Service usage is not allowed in the US. The dish rents for $2.50 per month or can be purchased outright for $44.00 after discounts. Their service fee's apply, of course. Anyone familiar with this arrangement or another idea for inexpensive mobile internet service? I have travelled back in these forums, but I an still lost.
Thank you.
