If your stuck with Dial-UP you can also consider an MPPP modem. 2
Bonded 56K lines make a noticeable improvement in Citrix. I have a
branch office (4 People) that moved without telling anyone it was going
to happen. Then wanted to know why they couldn't get to Citrix...
For the next month (until DSL comes in) their running on a Netopia Dual
Analog Router, that I bought 8 years ago, and still pull out on just
such occasions. With 4 sessions it's a little slow, but OK for casual
users. And with 1 sessions it's really pretty good. =20
Do a Google on "112K bonded modem service" and there is bound to be an
ISP in your area that offers it. I even got a nailed up 24x7 unlimited
service with fixed IP for them so our VPN runs across it!

I had one client on Earthlink's 2-way satellite for a
while (I think they use direct-tv, but don't quote me)
- the bandwidth was great, but the latency is awful.
Remember that geosynchronous satellites are some
22,000 miles above the earth's surface, so there's no
hope on improving the latency until someone figures
out how to increase the speed of radiowaves through a
vacuum - which likely won't be anytime soon.
I tried a few citrix sessions for fun, and a dial-up
is more responsive.
ISDN generally goes everywhere and is typically
adequate for ICA traffic. Also, I've found a
third-party phone company that provides 384k T-1 for
real cheap ($169/mo), which has tyically solved the
no-dsl-available-and-isdn-is-too-slow-and-FR-is-too-expensive
issues that many of my smaller, rurally located
clients once had.
