I was trying a new system which is supposed to be plug and play.
Except that the instructions online tells you to download two pieces of software which are unfortunately competing with each other.
Here's the culprit. It was so plug and play that it took me hours to figure it out after calling the Axcess Point provider, the sat phone provider and the sim card provider...
Easy enough right?
the problem was a blinking red little light...it is now turning green.
Still pretty rough system, it drops calls, etc... but should enable me to download a bunch of grib files to get weather information, maybe input into nav software and perhaps send an email or two.
Cool stuff no matter what - being able to be connected with the world in the middle of the ocean, pretty neat.
