Online Hook Up

[Kain]

Well i've been a member of this forum for a decent amount of time and played PSO for a VERY long time on and off. Im not in anyway that good but i like to play the game and enjoy all the time i spend on it. Now herein lies the problem. I do not play online, ever, never have. So i've played up until now Offline and have done everything there is to do. Now i feel i've reached the potential of singleplayer and want to go online. The question is of price. I am not the most well of of people and don't know if paying for the connection and HL will be worth it. Especially since i am busy with school work at the moment. Will the price be worth it? How much can i get a full setup for? Thanks for any comments you can give.

Depends on your connection in your house. Modem being the cheapest in the short term.
Modem: Modem adaptor, phone cable.
Broadband: Broadband adaptor, ethernet cable. (if you don't have one, a hub/switch/network card would be better than direct connection)

Modem and BBAs are the same price, as are most of the cables. However, if you have broadband, it would be wise to get a router or network card because if you don't, you'll only be able to go on the internet with your gamecube or your pc, not at the same time.

HL (hunter's lisence) is £5.99 a month last time I looked, but you get the first month free. I'd wait until exam's finish if I were you. You'd get addicted to it

Oh. And if you wanted to talk online, you should get a keyboard. In fact, I'd says it's a mandatory item if you go online. That would cost £20 for the cheap keyboard which has some problems, but is far better than nothing.

In total with keyboard, I'd guess £50 without extra HL time.
