i cant get street fighter IV, Resident Evil 5 or Call of Duty 4 Moder Warfare to work. I can connect and chat with my friends while they enjoy games on their better internet, but thats just frustrating. I only keep it for downloadable content. I did get Gears of War 2 to work but it was horribly laggy.

its so frustrating that i have considered moving to somewhere they offer highspeed internet. Being a gamer in the country sucks.

I feel your pain I have had Hughes net for 2 years and any shooter game will not work but Tony hawk games and guitar hero3 work just like cable. I have an iPhone and I heard u can get a wireless router and set up a wireless network and connect the iPhone to the network and use it's 3g Internet to play. Hope it works out for u
