As they say in the U.P. "We have 9 months of Winter and 3 months of bad
sledding"
Customer is in the southwest U.P. close to Wisconsin. This is
affectionately referred to as the "banana belt" of the U.P. Only 150
inches of snow/year vs. the 250 inches (at times over 300) of snow/year
in the Keweenaw. Mush!

If the customer is on the Keweenaw Peninsula, the best way out is over
the ice to Canada. I think only August is a problem, but maybe dogsleds
could pull over photos of what the screens would look like. (I also
used to be a "loper"). tim

Onderwerp: [THIN] Re: Citrix Network Technology PossibiltiesLet me
clarify. The Citrix server site (by car) is approximately 468
miles/754km away from this site.

what aobut a 2-way wireless connection.
We're doing tests now for a customer with numorous locations in a range
of 30km
the worst connection we have is 4MB and the best connection is 34MB.
I'll check the brand we're using, for I forgot, it's looking good so
far..
I'll get back to you about this

Onderwerp: [THIN] Citrix Network Technology PossibiltiesI have a
customer site a rural town in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan where I
have real dilemma.
The not-so-pretty facts:
1) No DSL or Cable provider
2) No local dialup or ISDN internet service
There are 3.5 (1 is part-time) users at this site who use a Citrix
published desktop (they run primarily MS Office and a custom
client/server app). I ended up going with a 56K frame relay circuit.
This is proving to be very slow and expensive (now appx $700
USD/month).
I have heard that 2 way satellite latency is just too high for Citrix
applications. Is that still the case? Any technology or options that I
haven't considered worth looking at?
Thanks in advance for assistance.
