Re: FFXI and Restricted Data Download Satelite Internet

agreed. I'd rather use satellite internet than have no internet at all.


Then again, I once had to live 6 months with nothing but an uber-crappy cellphone for internet access...

The biggest concern thus far has been whether or not we'd wind up going over limit in casual play. (latency aside) We still have to do more in depth checking of the bandwidth but a casual glance was that the amount of data transfered was actually quite low (rarely if ever breaking 1kb a second to every few seconds)

You won't go over 325MB even if you played every second of the day.

I play on dailup. It's highest sustained rate is about at 2.5k/s. That is a maximum (if the 2.5k/s holds) of 210Mb. Again, thats playing every second of the day. Thats low enough to download an update and play every second of the day, which is of course not possible.

Not possible for you, maybe.

Those of us with caffeine and without employment can achieve the astounding!
