just note, most sony online games don't support dial-up as much now as when the adapter first came out. games like socom 2 and the up coming rainbow six are broadband only. the ea games allow dial-up in most of their games but again one of the worst to play against. again, not everyone shares on your theory due to their experiences with dial-up. so don't start with all this hate just cuz someone doesn't agree, its their opinion and they're intitled to it.
