This actually exists in some countries. E.g. in Europe there are (were?) several companies selling modem/ISDN+satellite bundles. All the upstream and parts of the downstream would travel through land-line while larger downloads would be routed via the satellite. This also saves you from needing to have relatively expensive satellite upstream equipment. Otherwise, with GEO/GSO satellites there is no way to get below ~280ms round-trip times. |
