Notes on dial-up ISP for Ragnarok Online

[shadowrun]

Gusto ko lang malaman kung ano ang prepaid ISP na ginagamit nyo na minimal ang lag during peak hours.
Please post here para hindi na ako mahirapan subukan ang mga prepaid cards.

1. i-tipid (prepaid)
PROs
- may lag pero tolerable.
- 20 hours for 100 pesos
- madaling maka-connect kahit sa gabi

CONs
- sobrang lag pag more than 3500+ na ang players
- disconnects after 1.5 hours sa gabi (can someone confirm on this)
- minsan long delay ang data transmission

* i recommend this for long play hours

2 Fuel (prepaid)
PROs
- 21 hours for 100 pesos

CONs
- hirap maka-connect sa peak hours (hindi lang sa gabi)
- same as i-tipid pero mas lag
- the 56k they advertise is not true

* don't buy this card, it's not worth it

3. Infocom
PROs
- smooth gameplay anytime
(no lag o hindi mo mapapansin)
- madaling maka-connect
CONs
- 9 hours lang for 100 pesos

* kung madami kayong pera you can buy this or mag broadband na lang kayo kung adik kayo maglaro

4. PLDT Vibe
PROs
- same as Infocom
CONs
- mahal! 30 pesos for 1 hours (peak)/ 15 (off peak)

* mag DSL na lang kayo kung adik kayo mag laro

Other ISPs you've tried, please post here.

Sabi ng friend ko na may shop. Sa lahat daw ng DSL ang pinakamaganda daw eh yung PLDT since wala daw lag kahit na sa mga crowded areas. I think he's paying 2.5K/month pero sulit naman daw kase ang dami nyang customers.

I'm using Tri-Isys internet. 748 bucks/month (that's 1 peso per hour). Dehins sya maganda for Ragnarok since puro siya lag. Tapos automatic na nagdi-disconnect after 4 hrs or logging in.

PLDT Vibe, Infocom at PLDT DSL ang ok ngayon. Pero mukhang may problem ang server ng LUG.

now that's an understatement hehe

d mo ba nakikita forums nila? binaboy ng mga complaints dahil sa downtimes and stuff hehe

Tri-Isys din ako, lag nga talaga pag peak hours, pero manageable naman pag gabi na, rare pa yung lag pag after 12 (basta ayos yung server nila)

Go! internet 100's for regular hours, good latency (150-250ms)
Bl@st! during offpeak hours 100's (15 days libre!), best latency (100-150ms)

both are from caloocan area
