Any spare modems?

Post by Jesus Freak »

Yo, my modem is currently giving me a headache with it's inability to support over 5 or 6 players without severe spiking to the thousands plus there's lots of loss.

I currently have a Zoom External modem. Earlier, I played with an Aztech internal modem, and I could handle up to 12 players with my D3 settings at 56k just fine. Half of my shots don't even register right now.

So does anyone have any unused modems that they could donate to the JF cause? I'll pay for any shipping costs. Thanks.

P.S. My parents are very low on $ right now. In fact, they don't have enough for a Mexico City Missions trip this summer, so they're taking $400 out of my bank account to cover for it!

Your modem has been sucking since the day we all started playing you in this game bro. Thus the saying in the community when someone skips. We call it "Jesus freakin"
