Will someone tell me if Medquist currently accepts satellite internet connection? I cannot locate this information at their website. ...

Recently moved have Hughesnet and really struggling with download speed of voice files through vpn. We did upgrade one level to their 1 mbps speed but took over 8 minutes to download a 4 minute voice file. Kind of difficult to make any $ when half of the day is consumed waiting for downloads. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions to help out?... Does Verizon wireless card provide a better option? Any help or ideas would be much appreciated! ...

What companies accept satellite internet? ...

Since I live in the mountains, I now have to use satellite internet and find that lots of companies will not go for this. Does anybody know which companies use satellite or are not too picky about this? It is hard enough trying to find a job lately, but then it seems like satellite is just another obstacle to put up with. Thanks for any info -- appreciate it. ...

I am about to be moving out in the boonies and was wondering what companies allow you to work with satellite Like WildBlue, Hughes or dial-up. ...

Any companies that alloow satellite internet? There is no DSL or cable internet available at my new address. The only thing available is satellite. Right now, I'm having to go to my mother's to work so I really am considering trying to find a company that will allow satellite internet. ...

Many companies specify no satellite. Is this uncompatible with their system or do they just prefer no satellite so say no satellite? I mean how do they really know or not if you have it? Have you thought of that. I mean some companies that use Escription say you can use satellite and some say no you can't. If they are using the same platform how can it work with one company and not the other? ...

What about the download limits they all seem to place on sat internet service. Do you exceed these limits using it for working? ...

Are there any companies that you can use satellite instead of DSL? I am considering moving pretty far out that does not offer DSL. I REALLY love the jobs I have, but I remember when hired they said no satellite. Does anyone even know why this is? Will the programs not work with satellite or is it just some kind of privacy policy and would they find out if I just switched to satellite when I moved and didn't say anything? ...

I posted this on the main board and no one replied, so I figured maybe it should have been posted here on the Tech Help. I currently use Starband, an older satellite provider. Where I live no DSL, cable or cell phone signal. Starband just raised my monthly rate, so I am looking into switching. I have Dish TV and see that they have internet satellite, but I don't know anyone who has this. I have been doing transcription from home for 18 years and have used Starband since then. I was wonderi ...

I currently have satellite (had dial-up before that) and I notice most companies want high speed internet and will not accept satellite. What about wireless...anyone have an idea how widely this is used as far as MT work IF it it used at all? Thanks. ...

Does anyone have a list? I know more of them do NOT let you use satellite. ...

I'm in a rural area in the Midwest and currently have satellite Internet. Seems like all the services are requiring DSL, which isn't available here. I don't even know if wireless is an option. Anyone know of service(s) needing experienced (20+ years) MTs? Keep in mind, though, that I do want to be paid for the work. :o) I currently work as an IC and prefer no specified schedule so that I am able to work around my family members' m ...

Does anyone use something other than broadband with Bayscribe and how does it work for you? ...

Even though I was told by my CCM she has sympathy for my plight I am required to download 6.1. Okay, I had to take my puter to parents to get the tutorial. I don't have a problem taking the CPU over there to get the 6.1 upgrade (downgrade if I see correctly by others). I have dial up and cannot get DSL. I have been with this company for 17 years. I am not an overt cheerleader, but I need my job and cannot go outside my home. Someone ment ...

any help on this? ...

There seem to be a lot of companies that say no dial-up or satellite. BUT I've heard from other MTs that use the same platform for another company on satellite and it's fine. Escription is one example. Can anyone tell me why that might be? I have only satellite and am very limited on who I can work from. It's way beyond frustrating when I've been refused application on multiple positions on a certain platform 'because it doesn't work with sa ...

I have heard that their transcription and editing platforms -- Escription will work with satellite internet. I know I am not the only one who could no longer work at Nuance due to only having satellite internet. I was working for awhile at my daughter's home, but that did not work out too well due to house overrun by all the kids and their friends. If I could have had my own private office, I would have stayed there to work. Anyway that is all beside the point ...

As well as your computer requirements? My desktop does not meet the requirements, though pretty sure my laptop does, BUT I use satellite which on the hiring forms they sent me they said won't work....however I know for a fact that it will work with the platform I will be on with their company (have done it with another company, no problems though the tech people had no clue and were shocked to hear it...but it works fine). They will not be installing anything on my compute ...

Was thinking of applying, really don't want to go thru all the time and trouble if they say, sorry no satellite. Also what platform(s) do they use, etc. Thanks! ...

We are moving and my options for cable and DSL are very limited....I need any and all feedback I can get to make a decision, please. Speed, reliability, etc. Does it affect your production?

Is it possible to work for Synernet on satellite internet? I am not talking about the bottom-of-the-barrel speeds, but I have the top satellite speed package and have no trouble with Editscript right now. Just wanted to know this before I spend time applying and find out I could'nt work with their software. TIA. ...

I currently use Starband, an older satellite provider. Where I live no DSL, cable or cell phone signal. Starband just raised my monthly rate, so I am looking into switching. I have Dish TV and see that they have internet satellite, but I don't know anyone who has this. I have been doing transcription from home for 18 years and have used Starband since then. I was wondering if any MTs work with satellite and which provider, and if they are satisfied with th ...

Does anybody know if there are any companies that let you work from satellite or is that illegal now due to HIPAA? Years ago I looked into this and there was a tiny list of companies but it was dwindling so don't know now. Might be taking off in an RV and was wondering if anybody works that way with a satellite dish attached or some other method? Somebody that works like this wrote to me a long time ago and told me she has some little gadget she plugs into her computer and it provide ...

I work on EditScript via satellite internet for another company. Focus will not hire to work on EditScript if you have satellite, saying it is not compatible. Anyone working for them with satellite? I don't understand this, since the platform should be the same no matter which transcription company you access it through. ...

I have been with the same company for over three years now and we have recently switched to ASR. I am really trying, but am not really enjoying it at all for a number of reasons. So, I am going to start looking for companies to possibly apply to. My big problem is that I have satellite internet and I really would like to narrow the pool before I start contacting anyone. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ...

I previously worked at Nuance on Editscript platform. I moved and had to get satelllite internet, and Nuance wasn't compatible anymore. So I am working at Transcend, who said the BeyondTXT platform is satellite compatible. I do not care much for BeyondTXT though. My line counts are much lower than what they were with Editscript. BeyondTXT said their accounts with Editscript aren't compatible with satellite. Is there anyone who works on an Editscript ...
