i understand that this working group is looking into methods of more fully
utilizing IP over satellite.

i am (as some of you will understand) in the unenviable position of having
actual production systems using IP over satellite for Internet access.

we currently have a 2mbit circuit which due to the issues being discussed here,
is highly under utilized.

as such, i am looking for solutions which will help me maximize the utilization
until such point that the solutions discussed here are forwarded and
implemented.

since the time between recommendations from this group, and the actual
implementation can be quite long, i am attempting to discover what possible
interim measures can be used to increase performance.

i would appreciate any insight that the gathered minds here can provide.

if this message is off-charter, please let me know.
