What type of connection do you play on?

Hey, just curious, what type of internet connection do you guys play on? I was using regular dial up for a long time. Recently switched to Hughes net satellite because its the only method of "High Speed" available in my area. There's about a 1-2 second delay between me hitting one of the "action" buttons and the "action" actually taking place on Stars. However, much worse lag on full tilt and other sites.

5 meg cable, it jams when everything is working right. It jammed when it was only 1.5 meg.

VDSL - 1.5Mb provisioned. Tested 1.1Mb down/400K up.
I've run 3 TLS/SSL sessions simultaneously along with other traffic and I've never had a problem.

Your delay has to do with the fact that you are talking to a Satellite over 25K miles up. It takes about a 1/2 second for the speed of light to make it up/down in each direction.

i got verizon fios 15d/5up,i can play 10 tables without lag even while downloading a file...

"Broadband", which in Australia is a fairly pathetic 1.5M down /256k up

Almost never have lag problems playing poker though, even with downloads running in the background and whatnot.

3mb Charter cable, BUT I am using it on my wireless. I have multi-tabled up to 9 on PokerStars without a problem.

I have to use Hughes sat. too as with you it is all there is. I have terrible lag on fulltilt. Most of the other sites are pretty good. If there is a storm in the area sometimes I have some connection problems. I also have to be sure I do not download too much or they slow everything down. I just plan on downloading during the no limit period.

I have dsl and have had no problems playing multi tables an FT, PokerStars or bodog.

I have Verizon FIOS here, 15meg up and down. Never had any connection problems, even when doing games at 3 sites at once, downloading movies and surfing the net too.

54.0mbps DSL and ive never had any real problems with it
