I know im behind the times.....but where I live, DSL and Cable are not available quite yet. So has anyone tried JTL with a 56k connection, and what were the results? Thanks for any replies I get

I don't have a definate answer for you as I no longer use dial-up (though I have played my fair share of games with dial-up) but I would say don't bother. It is twitch, not for the weak of connection

Space is much less laggier then the ground game, i'd say u'd be fine.

Yeah, with few exceptions space is better lag wise than the ground. You'll probably be all right with nebulas turned off and cockpit off (or third person) if you start having lag issues.

Hello.
I am currently on 56k....i have a somewhat high end custom built computer built by myself. And im on 56k.....the game on the grouns is laggy as crap as of late ( ever since pub 11 ) but the space is fine.... i lagged a total of 2 times when i was on for a total of about 8+ hours.....and those times where only cuz my ISP was trying to disconect me. So in short i lag 0% in space. I have alot of the graphics turned down or at about normal. And i keep the cockpit up....hope that helps but really the ground game seems to lag worse than space ever will lol.
