I think 90% of the OP's problems stem from the fact that he does not
have good Internet service. In fact, I get the impression of dial-up.

I would expect that if he was able to acquire good Internet
connectivity, the cost would be far outweighed by the saving in IT
unpleasantness, and he would do so, and that therefore there is some
impediment.
