Don't
count on your ISP (internet service provider) to be able to handle your slow
satellite connection. Service providers usually do not expect anyone to
access the server at a lower rate than 10 k, and you might get
timed-out, making it impossible or difficult to establish a connection.
Call your ISP and, most importantly, run your complete set up well in
advance. Ask the ISP people if they have a special line for slow
connections. Asking for a fixed IP instead of a dynamic could help.
On one occasion, the connection worked fine in trials, but failed
suddenly in Base Camp. Turned out that the ISP had changed their
settings without notice. Adding a second ISP for backup is a smart move.
