I had dial up till 2013 because of remote living

never could pvp because of it

unless I made a trapsin with infinity and attacked innocents in pub games like a weasel

and it wasn't good dial up either we are talking 14.4 and 28.8 connections with noise in the lines causing disconnections all the time

can't get signal in many mountain areas for a company to install unless you went with something crazy costing business type prices per month

didn't have cell reception either had to go to town to make or receive a call a lot of times

first time I ever had highspeed was 2013 and that was the first time i ever was able to watch a video and all that online

occasionally had texting

I hear ya. My buddy on discord lives out in the woods and XFINITY said they''d would install a line out there, but the 3-4 houses would have to pitch in around $100k total. He's lucky he gets 4G!
