ATT shouldn't be blocking you from playing a game on their network. So, maybe it's that laptop that has some software on it that stops games from being played. I mean does it have everything stripped from it game wise? If it's running something like that you would have to have the admin pass to turn it off. If it's a older version of windows they normally have programs to get past any windows password.


Also for 30 bucks you get unlim talk and text and like 500mb high speed and unlimitied data after that... the unlimited is super slow, but i was able to play eq, surf forums, and imageboards on that connection. verizon though the others i dont think are unlimited .

If you have access to split your HD or SDD into partitions do it. Reboot the laptop and enter BIOS set-up. Make it boot up the empty partition first. Install another copy of Windows on the empty partition. Boot up on this drive when you want to game, boot up on the company partition when you want to work.

I'm glossing over some steps, but this will take you down a path I used to get around these 2nd rate IT guys.

I just moved and have successfully tethered my laptop to my phone to play.

I have no issues at all playing over LTE in the UK. I've even been known to book a holiday now and then and spend the day at the pub playing EQ tethered to my phone.

What would be a good Netbook to buy to play P99 smoothly? Also how much data does this game consume through LTE?

I don't have numbers to offer you, but its minimal. I believe refreshing forums and forum questing was a greater drain on data than P99 gameplay.

I hope you guys get fired for playing video games when you should be working. I bet you'd be one of the garbage group members who says they gotta go afk "real quick" (to do work you should be doing instead of playing a video game) and then tries to AFK for 30 minutes on the group being a straight leech.

You obviously have no morals or work ethic to prevent you from leeching from your employers so obviously you have no qualms leeching from group members in EQ...sad.

My mobile hotspot through T-Mobile works great. I was in a great Highpass Hold Gobbo group and my internet died. Decided to give it a whirl on my hotspot a minute later... and then didn't realize I was 2-3 hours into the session when my regular internet came up.
