I was under the impression that CS over mobile was not possible.
I am an intrepid traveller, not in the literally sense, but a traveller nonetheless.
I have had to try out CS over various networks just to see what worked.
Here are my findings.
Using a dongle on a PC can work though i would avoid it if possible you have to keep a
pc/laptop powered.
Best to get some sort of modem. My personal preference is the Globesurfer III. Although a
MiFi or similar can work as well.
GPRS will have severe break up. Like a dodgey sagem, for those that can remember that!
3G on the other hand, will be more like a dodgey DM800 on HD.
Obviously all this depends on where your share is.
But CS over the mobile network is not impossible.
I was once told that you had have a ping time of 80ms or less.
This is nonsense.
Under 200ms will work fine.
150-180 will be premium
over 300 will be like gprs.
So my findings are that CS works over the mobile network if you need it!
