: : ok, im wondering with more and more "multiplayer only" games comming out (Q3a, NWN, UT, CS just to name a FEW), what speed net does everyone have, and how common is that speed??

: : In New Zealand, im running on a dialup 56K line. My top ever speed would have to be around 5.2 Kbps, which is pretty good considering teh theoretical maximum is around 7Kbps..

: : in New Zealand, almost everyone has dialup, but the jetstart and jetstream services are starting to make their way into residential homes, jetstart being 128kbps limited, and jetstream being 1024kbps...i think...

: I am connected on Narrowband (56K). There is no broadband in my community, but the other towns surrounding it does. That is so unfair. I usually connect at 50.6K almost all the time. I get around a steady 5.5KB-6KB per second.

yeah, when im at colledge, friday evenings, when everyones gone home, i bring in my laptop, and utilise the broadband connections they have in there.. its sooo fast...
