Edit: you should say network connection rather than internet connection, people might get a bit confused

LAN (Wired, Wireless), Internet (Cable, Dial-up, Satellite, dsl, etc)

tigger · Dec 14, 2007, 12:49 AM

I have tried gaming through my wireless connection,(wifi on router to onboard wifi),but its poo.The ping is always too high.

Hawk1 · Dec 14, 2007, 12:49 AM

Both. Wired for my main rig, and wireless (linksys) for laptop, but voted wired, as that is what I mostly use.

Grings · Dec 14, 2007, 12:49 AM
