Answer by Tracy L
OK, I'll take a stab at this. VOIP over Satellite will always be LESS quality than WIRED solutions! The reason is very simple, it takes time to go UP then DOWN from a satellite! Geostationary or not, it still has to get there and back! That time is longer than using wire, fiber, cable etc.
Yes indeed TACHYON has a good satellite system, yes it does work but still won't beat a wired connection. However, several of the satellite carriers can deliver good (not great) voice when nothing else is available! (Notice - when nothing else is available!)
Just look at Tachyon's pages.. selling points. When local infrastructure is down? When in remote locations, for redundancy. Why are those the selling points, well it can't beat wired delivery and at the present time neither can anyone else!) However, when wire isn't available its as good as if not better than some of the others.
VOIP needs speed, and with satellite that speed is limited simply by the total distance it has to travel!
Hope that helps, it does work, but can't at this point beat a wired solution.
Give your answer to this question below!

Get The Best Satellite TV Entertainment For Kids
No matter how much we hate to admit that, it is a fact that the kids love watching TV as much as we do. And for this reason they keep sitting in front of the TV set for hours even if there is nothing on TV that can suit their specific entertainment needs. In this course they might even come across some content that can be described as kids inappropriate. With satellite TV at your home you do not have to worry about the TV time of your kids. Just a small changes in the TV setting here and there and they are they are better off on their own. Wondering how to do that? Read on!

They also enjoy educational programs with interesting visuals like the shows on Discovery Kids. You can also let them watch some wonderful children's movies that you used to enjoy as kids. They will surely love them. Then there are some other movie channels that regularly show some wonderful animation movies that the kids can enjoy to the fullest. Kids just love different t kinds of activities and hence sports programs and game shows also attract them. They try to imitate the games and try the games at home. So some fun game shows and craft making shows on satellite TV can be just as much fun. They can also enjoy some kids' cookery shows with parental guidance.
So these are some shows that the kids may love to watch. But what happens when the kids get bored and do not find something age appropriate? They sneak around other shows that are not meant for them while browsing through the channels. This can be a bit harmful for them at times. Why? They may chance upon something that is not meant for them and as a result they can pick up some wrong language, gesture or practice at a very early age. These things can have a deep impact on their physical and mental health and create some problems in their lives. This problem however can be dealt with care with a satellite TV feature.
This satellite TV feature is known as parental control lock. This feature comes with every DISH Network receiver and other receivers as well. This feature can be used in as many as three to four ways. The parental control lock can ban the satellite TV content as per the rating of the show. If a show is marked kids inappropriate the lock will automatically bar the show out of sight of the kids. However you can still watch it by unlocking the feature with the password. You can block an entire channel that contains adult programming. You can even ban some shows from a channel. In each case you can get to see your favorite content on TV by giving the password.
