I just bought the Starband 480 Pro a week ago, but have NOT installed it yet. I've been reading some reviews that don't sound so great (I'm considering returning it)... Does anyone have any advice on which system to go with? I understand that the "DW6000" has faster download times? However "Fapd" is 500MB on DW6000... Starband says they don't have one for Downloads, only uploads.
What I'm looking for is fairly consistent speeds with little hassle... also, I don't want to haggle with "Fapd" !! Is this possible. This is for personal use (two computers)... no real heavy downloads other than the occasional movie trailer, system update or jpeg.


Is there anything else I should consider?
