Murphy's Law
Having managed to live without a mobile Internet connection up till now I finally decided it was about time that changed. Be nice to keep in touch with Fumbbl & avoid the race to get league games played before I went away. All simple stuff you would think.

So I invested in a new Laptop & got one of those new fangled dongle thingie's. Updated the Java, checked I could make the client work on the laptop even bought a new wi-fi mouse!

So off we trundled to Norfolk & there I tripped over Mr Murphy! It seem's that part of Norfolk is in the Dead Zone download speeds of 1 bit per second up to 1 kb a second every half hour or so!

So apologies to all my opponents & league admins I thought I was making things easier but for Mr Murphy & his law I might have succeeded.

PS. I have tested the kit at home & it all works fine here where I don't need it to.

1bps that's slower than messages carried by pigeon

Is there an option to play by carrier pigeon?

My dog ate the carrier pigeon!

Actually you can get real solid speeds by pigeon; a high-end flash drive can contain quite some data. The problem, however, is the ping.
