  I'm moving house this weekend, but my internet provider has messed up my re-connection for the new house.  They cant sort out internet untill 23rd June.  

  HELP...I don't know how I'll survive for a month without my Golf, and to top it off, i'm not sure if i'll make the usga open in time.  Not even Roayl St George qualifier for a few weeks aswell.  You dont beleive how fustrating this is, and the mouthfull of *&^@~~ i gave SKY, my internet provider, yes remember that name - "SKY" watch out when you move, they might mess up your golf for a month...

  The most exiting time of WGT this year, and i might miss it all.  HELP, please.

  Maybe ask your neighbor if you can connect to their wireless network for a few weeks till you get hooked up, maybe hook them on WGT and buy them a sleeve of balls.

  Depending on your cell phone, you can use that as your isp.  I have a motodroid and an app called pda net.  If I'm out at the deer lease, I use my laptop, plug my phone into it and use my cell phone to get service.  As long as I have a signal, I have the net.  Load times are a little slower, but I get my golf fix in.

  Beg your friends to help, maybe you can use their computers or if they are wireless take your laptop and show em how much fun WGT is.

  Only have home P.C, Library's cpu's are old in my library, and don't have flash, and you're not able to download it.

  $99 American. Not sure if it would work over there though.
