Hi Vinay, yeah you are right, but in the case of sat connection this fact depends on the sat technology itself. You have to use a modem from upload, cause it is not possible to send data through a sat link, like you have it at home for television! This kind of sat connection can only receive data! You see that is not something special of linux, but has to do with the technology! Please reply to list in future cases! Thx!
