So what do all you guys do online when international access isn't available? Most of the stuff I do is overseas and I would love to have some local links available for times like these. Anything to do with gaming and downloads and stuff would be cool. If you can't post links here email me ;)

That is if anything works though, because today was very weird. Things that normally work when international is down didn't and vice verca.

I was downloading Red Orchestra Unreal mod which is 400 odd MB and I got 300 megs of it when international was down. It was pumping at between 16 and 18KB so I was chuffed.

I got it off http://games.saix.net/localdownloads/

Does anyone know how to get onto the local DC++ hub? That could be usefull when international goes down.

How about alternative entertainment?

There must be more to life than a modem and internet!

Is there a local DC++ hub? I tried getting onto any hub without much success.

I think it was zahub.kicks-ass.net, I could be mistaken, search the myadsl topics, it came up a few months back

None of those actually worked.

Does anyone know if these work and if so then what am I doing wrong?
