I'm sorry that you have to pay $55 when I pay zip. (Parents) But that's pretty cool that you did all of that for Halo 2.

I'm using satelite right now, and its about 55 buck per month, exept online gaming is impossible. Download speed is great, but not upload.

Wow are you insane? I live in a slightly lower than average income house and I can still convince my dad to get me highspeed. Who the hell is patient enough to have dial up? Honestly, you are saving MORE money by having high speed internet. You can do school projects and look up stuff MUCH faster, and as you know, time IS money....so technically you are saving money! At least in my opinion...the only reason for dial up is if you don't use the interent much, if at all...

Like alot of xbox owners...where I live I cannot get high speed internet (DSL or CABLE) and therefore cannot play xbox live. But after looking around and seeing what was available I found that a wireless ISP was able to connect to my house. I bought the antenna and the sevice for about 55 bucks a month, and now I connect over 2,000kbps + and have pings within 60ms to 140ms. I plugged my xbox in and sure enought xbox live worked!!!! My ping time isnt as good as cable but I can connect to live and play with no lag 99% even on a full server.....but this is the amazing part...I CONNECT TO A TOWER OVER 6 MILES AWAY!!!!

Anyway my point is just beacuse the cable guy says that DSL or Cable is not availabe in your area, you can still look around. Also, they will dig a cable to your house if you have enough money....

Now I am HALO 2 PREPARED........my Gametag is "Jumping Yoshi" and I play Crimson Skies and Rainbow six 3....see you online.
