Hi,
Currently I am on DSL which plays the game just fine. I am soon moving to the country and the only internet options are dial up, satelitte and Verizon says they have a wireless hot spot thing they can do for me. Satelitte claims to be speeds up to 15mps, if used at 2am to 8am with a max of 40gb data cap. Verizon offers a max data of 20gb. Dail up I am guessing won't be fast enough to play, unless there is something new I have not heard of. Does PWI use a lot of data to play?
I know this is not much information but It's all I have to go on, so..please, if anyone can help me to decide if and or any of these will work to play PWI I would greatly appercciate it.
Thank you for any information.

    i think you should first start with the country/city you are moving and then some1 who lives there might help you more. Or ask in game, should be easier to find someone from that place and find out which is best.

    I have a bandwidth Cap of 1.5 GB/month(unlimited download/upload during 2:00 am to 8:00am). I have DSL My connection speed is upto 2 mpbs & i can play just fine without much issues. Wired Broadband connections are best to play PWI wireless isn't stable i guess you should go for wired broadband connection with atleast 4 mpbs speed or more for smooth gaming experience. And also PWI doesn't uses much data.

    If you plan on doing anything other than checking e-mail, basic web browsing, or maybe some mild streaming, satellite is not for you. If you plan on doing something that requires fast two-way transmissions with very little latency, you definitely don't want satellite. Wifi is a bad choice as well. (Though Verizon's 4G network isn't bad if you can get good speeds and signal in your area, it just tends to cost a lot more than DSL/Fiber.)
