Default Internet via SkyStar2

Is it possible to recieve high speed internet via this card?

I am planning on doing an internet radio station so I need a fast uplink. Is the internet connection basically a downpipe for a slow existing internet connection and not an upipe to the net?

Thanks in advance

It is, indeed, just down. I remember some services using 56k for the upload a few years ago, so I would probably not bother! You can do better for the same money with ADSL and cable.
