if you wanted to game online with a ps3 and a xbox console which connection would you chose if you were only given TWO options . . . option A is using HSDPA and option B is using a wifi antenna which one would you chose and why . . . .

Neither. I'd stay without
 
lol I was hoping that would not be the answer . . . if telkom refuses to give you a phone line yet there are lines 60m across the road how can i get connected to those lines . . . .
 
I'm guessing wifi antenna is cheaper on the data cost ? if thats the case and the ping times are relatively the same then I'd take that. You'll only be able to play local games and your ping would be high. You'll mildly enjoy it.

Get Telkom Wimax then. You can use your normal ADSL accounts with them. You don't pay for the equipment once off and out of pocket. And it's much better quality in terms of ping than any other service out there currently. Mostly because I think it's because you're connecting straight into the ADSL network and not some closed off "We provide you the bandwidth as well" piece of crap

I thought smoking was bad for me until i met the 802.11 family.

PS3 and xbox im going for the huawei b970 router i was playing killzone last night international with 25 people and NO LAG
 
When I used to play CoD online with 3G, I also thought I had no lag. Everything seemed to be working well but then I saw my Kill Cam. LOL
