Out of curiosity...what ISP does everyone here have?

As in...does anyone here have Satellite?

I finally got some help. Finally. I did something called a tracert, and found out that basically, my problem -is- caused by WildBlue.net. Or, just the fact that I have satellite internet in general.

This...

...sucks.

Because my dad tells me we cannot get the other types of internet, only Satellite. x_x;...Anyone know why this might be? I'd ask him, but he'd yell at me again :/

I want to know if the fact that I have Satellite, prevents me from ever playing...

...;_____; ...I have...no

...;_____;

...I have...no idea...

My knowledge is limited, but

My knowledge is limited, but from what I've heard, sometimes certain ISP companies don't have coverage in certain areas, like how some cell phone companies don't have coverage in certain areas.

I don't know anything about satellite or why it would cause connection problems specifically to TEF. Did your problems start when you started using satellite?

I have wireless DSL (SBC) and it's been working really well so far.

PsychedelicWow - I've had

PsychedelicWow - I've had half a year to find out, it's due to ping. I've had satellite since I started playing the game.

My ISP is WideOpenWest, or

My ISP is WideOpenWest, or WOW. Its also a broadband/cable internet. A question for you though, do you live away from the city? Usually people who live out in the country don't have access to cable TV or broadband internet, so they have to rely on sattelite :/
just gotta stay hip to my jive.
