<br class="">
It seems like the majority of the islands are in the HughesNet and SES/O3B footprints. I started an inquiry with HughesNet today, but apparently their sales people are brain damaged as they referred me to distributors in PR, and of the few I tried, I had fast busy, endless ringing, or even dead air.<br class="">
<br class="">
I’ll try SES/O3B tomorrow.<br class="">
<br class="">
Of course, if we come to learn transit is available and just needs some help, these Satellite options can take a back seat.<br class="">
<br class="">
In the mean time, if anyone here has inside contacts at either HughesNet or SES/O3B, that would be helpful. Last resort, of course, is more BGAN gear.<br class="">
