    I guess that would depend on the file size of the patch (for example, next week's R20 patch will probably be HUGE :eek:) and the developer's upload speed at home :rolleyes:

    Heck, my upload speed at home is not much faster than dial-up (darn Verizon DSL modem :mad:) Their much faster FIOS service is not available in my area :(

    Keeping my fingers crossed that the problem will be solved before next week ;)

    Bummer!

    Fortunately they can splice the fiber. Won't be easy or quick enough though. Considering the impact, they are probably all over it.

    I still have an external 56k around here some where. Uploading patches shouldn't take more than a few days right? ;)

    All you need is a BBQ and a few cold brews and your Australia simulation will be complete.
