Post by: Bonk on January 30, 2006, 03:28:47 pm: Satellite internet service is not compatible with multiplayer gaming. (yes the ping times are guaranteed to be >500ms)

Post by: Dracho on January 30, 2006, 03:38:56 pm: Actually, on the wireless (it's not satellite) I do okay with games like Delta Force online. I very seldom get lagged.
