Josh,
What is the bandwidth you are getting from Comcast, and are you getting a 
static IP? AFAIK, Comcast downstream is 

T1 is symmetrical approximately 1.5Mbps. I don't know what your effective 
bandwidth will be on the satellite. 

From their website, Comcast standard business is asymmetrical 5.0 Mbps 
downstream, 512 Kbps upstream with optional static IP.
