Residential VSAT experiences?

Interesting that you say that about sip. We had a client that would use it for sip on ships all the time. It wasn't the best but it worked. Ping times were between 500-700ms.

SIP will suck. VPN will suck. RDP will suck.

Have you looked to see if you have any local wireless ISPs in your area?
Hit me up offlist if you want me to check for you.
