They somewhat bolstered their services in my area and gave it a spin for the first time since it was first installed locally
Sure it's wifi and prone to the occasional disco but I was able to keep a decent connection with variances in host queue and not much in regular.

Anyone else use this regularly? :bhead

Nope, I pay for a solid wired connection through my cable company. I fly on my desktop while streaming movies to my laptop as my son is online with his game systems and my wife is browsing the internet. No problems at all. Wired is best.

I run my tablet on my wifi, but Im sitting pretty close to the router..... which is wired.

Is it really wasting my time when it is my only reasonable choice to get that 1-2 days a month to maybe get to enjoy my subscription?

Yes, it could be depending on your situation.

If I understand this system correctly, it's a commercial wlanThere's one major difference between wired and wireless. Wifi is half duplex whereas wired is full duplex. That means, when an error occurs, half duplex has to wait until every incoming packet has arrived until it can send an error message. Full duplex will send the request of resending a lost packet immediately. In layman's terms, that is.

You can always come sit on my lap :O

Here we all thought once dialup went away, no more simplex problems.
I have always wondered in practical MA terms, if a simplex connection might not make it harder to be shot down.

Nope. No difference. The only thing visibly different might be stutter related for the person using the half duplex connection.

Well can you make them stop stuttering long enough that I can shoot down the real one in that floppy stuttering convoluting mess others describe as stick stirring? :O

Of topic, sorry Krabs.
Dial up never left. I am on 56K. Never had problems as long as there is no lighting. I have never been accused of stick sturing. No complaints of warping or shooting 2k behind someone in a cross shot and landing hits.
Sometimes I have trouble judging e and get a sudden turn out of a con when I don't expect it, but that may not be connection related. Ink in a Ki-84 can do that to a fella.
I have hit the road with my rig. Hotels can have fantastic DL speed and I can turn some eye candy up, but I have all kinds of other issues that I do not have with 56K. Think it has to do with 26K each way and a somewhat synchronise data exchange???

Comcast / Xfinity in my area was really pushing this stuff when it first becoming available. they wanted every customer to open up their modem to allow it to be used as a hot spot. Xfinity claimed that doing so would have no impact on your service. What a crock.
