	The dvbtune output seems to be very fine. The signal strength is very 
good too. The differences between the connection speeds can simply be 
explained with inexact calculations. Especially Mozilla does never show 
the real connection speed. In your case, iptraf seems to be most precise.

I rarely get full download speed when surfing in the internet with 
satellite. First the server you are downloading from might not have full 
bandwidth for every user and secondly, there might be many people 
accessing the satellite service at the same time.
