I was just wondering if there was some 'trick' to get around this without paying £30 per month for broadband just to play Quake2
If your in the UK and within range (6KM max) from your nearest telephone exchange that has been upgraded for ADSL, then i think you will find its cheaper than 30 UKP, around 20 to 22 UKP p/m is quite common, you may find it even cheaper though depending on ISP.
Be carefull as some charge extra for connection & equipment.
You should check out
ADSLGuide it pretty much covers all the info you will ever need about ADSL in the UK and also includes an ADSL checker to see if you can actualy get it in your area. if not there is always cable which i can't get :/
Might join you guys during the week when i get Q2... if the server is still up. I've never played this game so go easy :-)
