I just found an interesting
site that will measure the approximate throughput speed of
your connection. Basically, it measures how long it takes you
to pull a few hundred kilobytes off a Web site. This isn't the
same as measuring lag, so you can't really use it to measure
the suitability of your connection for this game. That's why
I'm not posting in Generic Discussions, where hundreds of
people will ask hundreds of stupid questions about it. But it
can give you something to think about and compare.
My connection achieved 123.3 Kbps. People with ISDN or modems
will get less, people with cable will get more. Don't sweat
about it, and don't blame me!
