    Check out Imagine and other similar (non-fixed-line) providers......

    i have checked out above, the best any can offer me is satellite broadband, which is not compatible for online gaming

    Why do you say it's not compatible? It's all about whatever speed can be delivered. Some of those providers can deliver significant speeds (depending on where you are located)

    Speed is not that important when it comes to online gaming. Latency is.
    The latency on satellite 'broadband' is woeful for gaming. You'd be dead 10 minutes before you know it.:D
