Bye bye lag
Posted: Mon Dec 15, 2008 4:05 pm
Ive never really had problems lagging. My PC is pretty new still and extremely powerful, as is the graphics card. I always play on max settings and can have fun water battles problem free (providing the other players do also!).
Now, it just so happens that I decided to check my ISP homepage(something I havent done in like huh...........a year). It just so happens that urs truly has been running a ADSL connection at 8MB and been paying €24.70 with unlimited downloads. Never had a problem with them, speed, bandwidth, stability or otherwise. So Im blessed to find that since the 25th of Nov (ie not 2 long ago) they updated their prices and services. Soooooooo 2 cut a long story short da 3vil D3ntist will now run a whopping 24MB connection and pay €24.00 for it. The PORTUGUESE techie (ie non indian!!!) promised it would kick in in no less than 10 working days.
Wººt wººt.
What kind of prices are yall dealing with and what kind of speeds are yall cranking out? I bet Im still very expensive compared to non 3rd world countries.
out
PS that same teechie said that in practical terms instead of getting a max download speed of 650kb/s Ishould be cranking out a MINimum of 2MB/s. Does that sound right 2 all u pros? Will it allow me 2 download stuff whilst I play AoEIII?
