that's pretty massive packet loss.  tcp is likely to suffer mightily.

i used dialup until last year.  the rtt time to the gatway was 150ms and
the provider was proud enough of their network to push the default mtu
to 1500 bytes.  i never measured any packet loss.

perhaps you would have better luck with dialup?
