As a starting note, I would like to say that this review is wholeheartedly the truth and does not deviate from the truth.

Avonline Broadband like to take your money and not give back what it is they are offering. They are happy to take a substantial amount of money for hardware when it leaves the warehouse covered in bird excrement, dents, scratches, paint markings and moss. could at least charge refurb price for kit that is supposed to be new?!

From a technical side of things 800ms of latency isn't really good for anything. Now I understand there is going to be latency - there will always be latency until we can warp travel like they do in those Star Trek films - and there is bound to be more over a satellite connection, but c'mon Avonline, don't lie to me and your customer base when you say we can use either satellite provider for working in a cloud environment or holding decent telephone calls over Internet Protocol. They suck on Avanti and are just plain annoying on a Tooway connection. Now I understand this may be useful for a residential home for making some phone calls, but for business users, nope. Would. Not. Go. There.

I do like the Avonline Website, and this whole 'Adam' thing that is going on. Maybe Adam is a cult leader or something that Avonline Broadband tries to look up at.

The gentleman than installed the hardware was a lovely bloke. I think his name was Conan or Kieran or something along those lines?! Anyway, he quickly assembled the dish and placed it up on the wall. I cannot help but think what he explains about the satellite connection is -and it's all good things before you go pointing fingers at staff members - scripted. He seems to struggle promoting the product and looks like he is just a slavery machine in the scheme of things much, much larger in scale. Nice bloke and a quick, clean installation. BONUS Avonline.

You're probably sick and tired of my sarcasm and negativity but everyone is unique right and entitled to their opinion, am I not wrong?

I would either like the speed that was advertised or my money back Avonline, before a strong legal case hits your desk.

Ta-ta for now! *blows kiss*
