A ISP in Pune called jabarokee which operated in 1998 used a similar thing. Since dot / vsnl used to be expensive, they used dot line for upload and satellite for download. I am sure better tech exists today as compared to those days.
Was it Jabberwocky? Run by the chap who founded the Pune LUG?
Yes, same one. They used to run a Bbs which was converted to ISP with help from a Pune based industrial group who funded them. The guy is now in USA I believe. I also remember it was the first large scale Linux installation I had seen.
