I have a server in a remote location and its impossible to get a phone line in. Any ideas to how i could get log files back, files are typically upto 5mb in size and i may need to send them back every hour or so. Im running rethat linux 9 and was thinking of using a gprs modem?? does any one have any recommendations?? or advise?? The server is already receiving files from a satellite and it has a 802.11g wireless card. Any help would be appreciated!!

Using a gprs modem is fairly straightforward, it is just like a regular modem (I use the Siemens ME 45 phone and it works very well). Just google gprs modem linux, you will see the config. It is just a few lines in kppp.

For the server side, I have no clue.
