Darnit to heck (I apologize for the harsh language) but I finally get all my chores done and was a good boy enough to play on Tuesday night....and spend 45 minutes getting the cable modem to initialize....play for a half hour, and wonder why no one is talking...only to look up and see no lights on the surfboard, save for a flashing power light! I was so pissed. I have a cable-guy bro-in-law, who's supposed to get someone testing the line to see if it's their problem, or the silly modem. Anyway, when it seemed I dropped off rudely, I was cut off against my will. Maybe it saw how badly i s0ck with shock combos, and was trying to do me a favor. :hmmm:

why not go with DSL? thats what i use and i have NO problems with it...and youve seen my pings so it is obviously running well, in fact, last night i was connected to one of Atari&#39;s TDM servers in 2k4 and had a 12 ping the whole time, was like LANin all over again

What are the transfer rates??

For my cable, it&#39;s 256 up and 1.7 down. for DSL they only offer 128 up and 1.5 down, or 256 up and 754 down, but that&#39;s &#036;15 more and &#036;10 more than cable.

This sucks&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; :bawling:
