Don,

bandwidth is not the problem, you can run a remote reliably on a 128 
kBit/s connection (been there, done that). The problem with satellite 
internet is latency! For remote you want to stay below 100 ms RTT (round 
trip time), better yet below 70 ms for a smooth experience. With 
satellite you're talking about > 1 sec RTT which is just unusable for 
remote.
