Guest kamil234 Posted November 25, 2009 CID Share Posted November 25, 2009 latancy will be an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zalternate Posted November 25, 2009 CID Share Posted November 25, 2009 Some online games will work with WildBlue, otherwise the 1000ms latency is what kills most everything. The speed is not really the issue. Along with DAMA putting the final nail in the coffin. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demand_Assigned_Multiple_Access Any terrestrial based(wireless or wireline) Internet is better than satellite.

zalternate Posted November 25, 2009 CID Share Posted November 25, 2009 Hopefully someone with it will come by who has it, but heres a Google link to search various places for ping times. Ping times can be subject to distance from tower. http://www.google.com/webhp#hl=en&q=verizon+mifi+ping&aq=f&aqi=g10&oq=&fp=a92da727ef84a59f Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
