<div class="IPBDescription">I must play NS again</div> Well, I had played NS sence the days of 1.04, and played until roughly the begining of beta 3. Now, a few months ago I moved with my family out into the country. Now it's great and all, the school is more acepting, and we have a 43.5 acre plot of land to do what the hell ever with. I've been reading the boards every now and then, just for fun.
The problem with all this, however, is that the only high speed interenet that we can access is satelite. We really don't have enough money to get everything needed for it yet, so were stuck with a crappy piece of 56k, which on a rare acasion(sp?) will give us 36k or so.
With that said, what can I do to be able to play online NS again? I need to know everything I'd need to do to be able to play, after installing all the patches and what not. Help would really be appretiated, as I've even begin to miss combat maps. Thanks in advance!
Edit:Sorry if this is in the wrong spot, I found Tech Support to be the most fitting.

This will help, but you're still going to get really bad pings until you get off dialup.

The server with the lowest ping is the best server for you.
Found this site that looked interesting, I hope it helps.
