VSAT can pump huge quantities of data quickly, however the latency is what nails you in a Citrix environment. There will always be a latency of at least 600ms - 700ms between any transaction due to the round trip distance from the satellite to earth and router overhead. Try doing a traceroute to see if you are exceeding this and where the bottlenecks might be located. Jan Broucinek, System Manager Arthur Rutenberg Homes, Inc.
