I can confirm that my cable modem connectivity in Austin has been terrible
lately and PL/Lag is virtually unbearable. I haven't taken the time to

while there are 11 people in the zone and having it take 5 seconds to
download the list of wares - apply that scenario to everything you do that
interacts with the server and you get the idea.
