Opinions please: ISP's and The Zone

Since it has become quite clear to me that AOL and
playing CART PR over Microsoft's *** Zone are
not exactly compatible, I'm shopping for a new ISP...

If you use the Zone for CART (or any other action games)
and have the following ISP's, could you give me your
opinions in regard to head-to-head playability?

- ATT Worldnet
- MCI
- Any ISP local to Indianapolis
- AOL playing another AOL player (something I've not yet
   tested but would like to... drop me a line if interested!)

Thanks in advance...

- Mike.

I have Sprint for my ISP... they are great... guarantee that you will always
get online or they refund a weeks charge.  Its great, and since sprint is
60% of the connections the internet uses, it's fast.  It only supports up to
28.8 for now though,  but it's a fast 28.8, and it's $20 a month.

I have KIVA and I usually show good latency when I'm on the Zone. I
think KIVA expanded into Indpls. http://www.racesimcentral.net/

They are constantly 'upgrading' and when they do you can expect a week
of having trouble connecting though!!!! ...OK maybe it's just a couple
of days but it feels like a week! ;o)

Good Luck,
Alan

I suggest checking out your local ISP's. mine is great it's only $25 cnd for
unlimited usage, there modems are 33.6 but they are going to upgrade. they
have great tech support.
