How should I set up the PC DVMS for remote view when using a satellite internet service?

DVMS_PC_FAQ
First of all this is not recommended, but in some cases this is your only option. We recommend you have a second PC for you to plug the satellite receiver into. Then you will need to setup a software based proxy on that second PC. Then you will need to set a home IP on the PC DVMS which normally looks like, 192.168.xxx.xxx. The software proxy will then need to be set to perform port forwarding to the PC DVMS.

How do I set up the PC DVMS for remote viewing?

DVMS_PC_FAQ
You can start your remote server of choice, (I recommend the web server for external connections), by pressing the button that looks like 3 computers connected by wire, or it may be labeled "Remote". You will then be presented with a list of servers you can start. Once you make your choice, you may be present with a setup type window for configuring your server. You may want to write down the port number set, whether you change it or not.

Why am I getting poor performance from my PC DVMS while using other applications?

DVMS_PC_FAQ
The PC DVMS is meant to be dedicated to recording video only. You can expect poor performance if you try to us the PC for other tasks. We will no-longer support a PC that has new software installed on it that is not meant to be used with the DVMS.

What are the system requirements for my PC to use Phoenix Internet's service?

Phoenix Internet Wireless Faq's - Wireless FAQs
Your PC must have a 10BaseT or 100BaseT Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC). We do not load any software onto your computer. All your PC needs is TCP/IP software and a web browser. Windows 95 or newer and MAC OS 8.5 or greater include TCP/IP and a browser.

Is Wireless Internet the same as satellite internet service?

menu1
No. We use ground based antennas to send information to/from the internet. Satellite systems often require a phone line and modem connection. They are also rather expensive, satellite space doesn't come cheap. And although the information travels fairly quickly, there is a significant delay in sending and receiving information because of the distance it must travel (satellites are around 23,500 miles up).

Do you have a satellite Internet Service Provider?

ETUDES-NG FAQ
Two examples are Direcway and Hughes. Satellite providers will often serve cached content to the user. This presents a problem because instead of getting “live” versions of Webpages, you’ll see older ones that have been stored in the satellite server’s memory for quick access. This will not work with a system like ETUDES-NG where you need to access live content. We recommend accessing your course from a computer with a non-satellite connection (Dial-up, DSL or Cable Modem).

Is this service the same as satellite internet?

What is a DVMS?

PlanetCCTV - Digital CCTV Recording & Web-Based Surveill...
DVMS is short for Digital Video Management System. Like a DVR that replaces the outdated VCR recorder and converts analog images to digital and stores it in a hard disk a DVMS offers extended features more powerful than a standard DVR system. A PlanetCCTV DVMS, for example, auto-archives all video redundantly in the background of the normal operation of a DVR.

I have another satellite service. How do I convert to the DIRECTV service?

Is this the same as "satellite" Internet?

Welcome to Exwire - FAQ
No! Wireless Internet is bi-directional unlike many satellite and cable solutions that require a phone line for uploading information. This wireless solution eliminates the need for any dedicated phone lines, and therefore reduces your costs, while providing data rates much better than cable modems or ISDN.

Is your wireless service similar to satellite-based Internet services?

Sierra Advantage Wireless Broadband -- 1-877-EDC-WISP / FAQ'...
Not even close. Compared to satellite Internet, fixed wireless is much faster and more reliable due to its inherent design. Because of the great distances to geosynchronous Earth satellites, data communications through them suffers from a condition termed "latency" (delay) which results in poor web browsing performance. In contrast, our terrestrial (land-based) fixed wireless network communicates through distances of only a few miles over roof-top based repeater sites in a local region.

How does DSL compare to a Satellite Internet Service?

Web Design, Web Hosting, Computer Networking, Network/Databa...
Internet access delivered via a satellite system is a recent addition to the list of high-speed access choices. DSL is a better choice for three reasons. First, DSL is easier to install. Satellite service is often difficult to set up, sometimes requiring multiple visits by the installation technician. Service that works fine in the winter may not work at all in the summer when the trees add foliage. Also, as landscapes change new structures can block the signals.

Is this a satellite service?

KWISP Frequenty Asked Questions
No, your antenna will be pointed at a nearby tower. Satellite based Internet services are typically no faster than dialup in the upstream direction, making them unsuitable for most applications other than web browsing. Starband and DirectPC satellites are in a geostationary orbit 22,300 miles above the earth or about 10% of the distance to the moon. A packet and its acknowledgement must traverse this distance 4 times.

Why is the environment variable REMOTE_USER not set?

Apache Server Frequently Asked Questions
This variable is set and thus available in SSI or CGI scripts if and only if the requested document was protected by access authentication. For an explanation on how to implement these restrictions, see Apache Week's articles on Using User Authentication or DBM User Authentication. Hint: When using a CGI script to receive the data of a HTML FORM notice that protecting the document containing the FORM is not sufficient to provide REMOTE_USER to the CGI script.

Is it safe to use my password from remote PC like at my office, internet cafe or WiFi network ?

Frequently Asked Questions
This icon near your password means that your password gets encrypted using MD5 hash algorithm (RSA Data Security, Inc 128 bit). Encryption makes it very difficult for unauthorized people to view information traveling between computers. It is therefore very unlikely that anyone read your password as it traveled across the network.

I hear satellite Internet access is fast how does it compare to WOWACCESS Internet service?

WOWACCESS FAQ
WOWACCESS provides superior Internet service when compared to satellite delivered Internet access with many advantages. There have been many recent articles describing the issues of satellite service experience such as slow downloads and or uploads, slow response, etc. Some of the issues are due to the latency inherent in a satellite environment cause by the great distance the data must travel (over 23,000 miles) which causes interactive Internet programs to react sluggishly or not at all.

How does the speed of wireless Internet compare to my current dialup Internet or satellite service?

Solano Wireless High-Speed Internet Access ~ Frequently Aske...
Internet "speed" is measured in units of kilobits per second (kbps). By comparison, if you currently have a 56K dialup modem and typically get around 28 kbps download speeds, compare that speed to up to 3,000 kbps or 5,000 kbps (depending on plan) with our Internet service! If you have a hard time envisioning kbps, substitute "mph" and you'll get the idea! The speed of your connection depends on which plan you select and the distance you are from our transmitter(s).
