I had to jump through some hoops but I was able to get WoW playable on a military network in Iraq when I was deployed there.

Lower standards I guess. I played on Bristlebane, or Bristlebroke, as it crashed multiple times a night for at least a month every time a new expansion came out. Link Death was by far the most common way to die, if not by the resulting trains when the rest of another party's members fled to zone out when their tank lost connection. It kept things interesting :) Raids on dial-up, how did that even work at all.

Yeah, I was so hooked on MMO's back in the day that I forgot all of the connection probelms. Although even after I switched to broadband I still had some connection problems, just less frequently. I played Final Fantasy XI the most, and I definitely started it after I got broadband and remember still disconnecting semi-frequently. I think the problem was on the server side more often than my own.

Ha, it actually worked better than my early experiences with xbox live on cable internet. 3 out of 4 races in TDU resulted in getting disconnected before the race started. In PGR I couldn't hear half of my friends during the race, yet in the menu we could all talk (with echos). Now in 2017, still getting disconnected occasionally while playing GT Sport online. It's only 1 out of 50 nowadays, but still happens.

Bought a mod chip and a Japanese copy of MvC2 and SegaGT on Dreamcast. Ended up frying my console trying to put in the chip, exchanged the console at Walmart, then like 2 days later learned about the lid trick to play any game on it. Turned out SegaGT was pretty solid but MvC2 was trash.
