Hey all :wave: Havn't been on in a little while, I got tired of paying outrageouse price for cable internet and am trying out dial up, boy, talk about a difference. Dial up sucks but then again so does $49.95 a month for cable internet. I tried to get in a game last night but the PINGS!!!, the PINGS !!! Un flicking believeable :bandhead: Well I guess I will see how long I can take it.

P.S. Welcome to the new members :thumbs:

Dial up sucks :bandhead: If you are a gamer. :thumbs:

I have xdsl, 256/128. I pay 150kr.(about 25$). a month. Not a perfect connection, but to that price it is o.k.

I dream about 512/512, which, after what i have heard, shut be a very good game connection.

I have DSL 576/?? (what is and how do you know this other bit?)

On Outlaws servers my ping is aboput 250 but the lag
is terrible, in fact the last 2 weeks it is getting worse :bandhead:

On Crazy&#39;s sever the lag is better as too on Outlaws UK server :thumbs:

I pay £22.50 (about &#036;14 per month) :cool:
