Sitting outside Jita atm, pretty busy spot, few duels and so going on: eve client is taking a consistent 10kbit receive, and about 1kbit send.

Some years ago my main Internet connection went down and I had to spend several months arguing with my ISP to have them fix the issue.

(In the end it turned out to be some 'less competent' contractors who had managed swap some connections (and mislabel some wires) during some unrelated upgrade.)

During that time I ran 3 clients over a tethered 3G phone without a hitch.

Minor patches was no issue, esp with the ability to keep the file after download and then apply it to the other 2 (or actually 3) clients.

But when it came to big ones I kept that 3:rd client on an USB stick, and sneaked over to a friend to update and then updatet my clients at home ;)

CCP Greyscale: As to starbases, we agree it's pretty terrible, but we don't want to delay the entire release just for this one factor.
