Need some answers

So I'm about to go buy d2 again, because I cant find my orignal disk set. I was wondering what bnets like now. I kind of need some input so I can try to decide what realm to play and all that. Anything would be a great help.

i just started playing again on Useast and i found it worse then what it was about a yr ago which is pretty bad, but i also live in australia so i dunno whether its just my location that makes me drop from games ect. i would just go for the closest realm near ur location

Yeah, I've always gone with USwest cuz I'm on the west coast, but I always dropped from games anyway. More than likely because I was on dial up. I just got cable(3mb) so I'm hoping my lag problems will be a thing of the past. I'm also trying to see where alot of people on here play, so I could maybe have some buddies to talk to. Playing d2 alone is no fun. And all my friends smoke dope or work all day, so they won't play with me.

Oh man.. I hope my ping and stuff is better with my new broadband. I mean, why wouldnt it be? From 36k to 3mb... But Im kind of nervous to try it now. Ahhhhh.
