Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

56.6 if the wind is blowing right otherwise somewhere in the neighborhood of 42.5k .  But 3 hops to a backbone and consitant latency  ;)  :) (makes all the difference in the world.)

I played on a 9600 modem and no one warped while I was playing and no one complained about me warping.  Skuzzy and I talked about it and he couldn't approve of it cause 14.4 is the lowest approved speed.  In todays MA I don't think it could be done.  The furballs are bigger.

The key is not the fastest line with the biggest bandwidth but a consistant low latency connection  :)  :)

aDSL going to Sprint Wireless Broadband, and for Maniac here in the us it is aDSL most don't realize it unless they know they are paying for sDSL,
asyncronous Digital Subscriber Line or syncronous DSL.
 
asyncronous, meaning differing speeds, you download faster than you can upload.

syncronous, meaning the same speeds, you download and upload at roughly the same speed.

Now cable

No problems with either method.

You smell that? Do you smell that?
Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that.
I love the smell of napalm in the morning.
The smell, you know that gasoline smell, smelled like victory.
