Service Plans SW-* require the use of a residential phone line for the uplink path. This dial-up path generally averages around 20Kbps and is more than sufficient for a single user browsing the internet as nearly all traffic is over the downlink. If the user consistently transfers large files up to the internet then a 2-way system such as the DW-R service plan should be investigated. If the user is reliant upon VPN or VOIP then the SW-* service plans may be a better choice as they do not suffer the full terrestrial delay problems associated with any 2-way service plan.
