Last time I dealt with such stuff (hundreds of VSATs across the whole
country, arriving at a Satellite Base Station), you absolutely had to use
protocol enhancement proxies in the SBS AND in the VSAT clients to get good
performance for typical end-user Internet usage.  This was a few years ago,
but it probably hasn't changed much.  I don't recall what proprietary stuff
was used for the proxy, but...

A Google search for pepsal will return a link to a PDF explaining the
design.  Maybe that could be of some help for you?
