    Hey Drivers!

    So I've been trying to dig around for options online for good internet to role play on Second Life when not rolling. What do you recommend? I'm planning on buying a gaming laptop with a budget of $2000-$3000 in 2-3 months, and want to be able to run SL at mid-level graphics. A lot of the info I have found online is dated, so I'm looking to find out what I need to have equipment-wise, to have my own internet that will work for my needs without having to pay truckstop wi-fi rates. What's current or new in 2022 that's top notch quality for a great signal almost anywhere, and ideally not being throttled (unlimited)?

    Watching this thread. I have heard from a friend ATT is good and to get unlimited he mentioned to never mention that it’s for a hotspot. Just mention it’s an additional line

    Searching the forum before starting a new thread about something that was hashed out 2 weeks ago!

    Wi-fi options in the truck.

    That was very helpful Lunatic Fringe. Any other sage advice while you're up there on your high horse?

    Always put a empty tortilla under your taco. That way, when stuff falls out, you got a pre-made taco!

    Sirscrapntruckalot - Always place something soft under your high horse. Lessens the chance of injury when you fall off.

    Truck Stop Wi-Fi is trash.
    And I am not even a gamer.

    Personally, I’ve tried to search forums and never seem to find the threads that I’d hoped to find.

    You must have some powerful Jedi/Ninja mojo skills going on.

    Millenicom is worth a look, although I say that with reservations, as their customer service has gone in the toilet.
