[QUOTE="John Crichton, post: 950719, member: 4779"] Ugh and ugh. Maybe a prompt email could get something done. I'll take a look through what I have here and see if I can get a phone number or some other contact info that may help you. I'm sure they are as concerned with getting you online to test their equipment as you are to do it. :) As for my experience so far, I spent a good amount of time installing and setting everything up. The patch downloads took a little while and I was kinda shocked that FFXI has to install to the HD before you can play it. It was a 40 minute install wait as well. I haven't even gotten a chance to play the game yet. I screwed around with PlayOnline for a few minutes just to test the connection and it seemed to work. I'm going to go out an grab a USB keyboard tonight on my break because the onscreen keyboard was driving me nuts!!! It is in use ALL THE TIME. God, I swear that is why it took so long to set everything up. :eek: But that said, the experience has been basically painless. When this goes live, the general public should have no time using it. Either way, Destil, I'll try and do what I can on my end and good luck trying to resolve things. :) [/QUOTE]
