OK, I havn't used a dail-up connection in years, but my Cable Modem connection is constantly getting "Internet Delays" on the Party sites of 12-20+ seconds. This is not only extremely frustrating, but has lost me $$$ on more than one occasion.
Unfortuntely, there is nothing my ISP can/is willing to do about this. My place cannot get DSL, so I'm left with only one option, Dail-Up, arghhhh. So does anyone out there use dail-up for 4+ table play? Is it feasible? Any other suggestions on what to do about the "Internet Delays"? Thanks for any input, ---Lawnboy |

I routinely play 3-4 tables a time on dial up, and dont have that much of a problem if any. I dont think I would try to play more though. However I will be getting DSL in the near future once my House is done being built. I just dont want to go through the hassle of changing right now.

56k: 4 tables successfully working. No probs whatsover, but haven't tried more.
64k/isdn: 8 tables playable at least. Again, no probs whatsoever. Could depend on your provide however, I'm not sure if one sample fits all. |

Lawnboy,
I hope that you meant "Dial up" and not "Dail up". Because you used it several times I was beginning to think that there was a new technology out there that I didn't know about [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] One Street at a Time wdbaker Denver, Co |

DSL is not the only high speed option you know. Surely you can get a high speed cable hook up where you are? If not, direct tv satellite offers high speed hook ups.
I stuck with dial up for a long time, I couldn't stand to go back to it now. I'd rather grind my own face off with a belt sander... --Zetack |

Sorry, much better at 7Stud then spelling.
I currently have a cable connection, this is what's having the problem. My apartment doesn't have the right view for satellite. Anyone else experience the dreaded "Internet Delays" on Party and skins? |

I have cable and it has always been incredibly fast with seamless reliability.

Very little data is actually sent over the connection. I had no trouble multi-tabling with dial-up after my move and before my DSL was up and running.
