Remote connection software for Satellite Internet

I have a property with no broadband availability other than satellite. Because of the latency I can not connect to the property with PCanywhere, or Netmeeting. I get kicked off as soon as I move the cursor. I can connect through dialup, but 5 phonelines gets expensive and is slooooowwwww. Does anyone know a workaround? I was even thinking a VPN tunnel, but Remote Desktop would still give me fits I imagine. I am probably SOL, but would take any advice.
