Rural has nothing to do with it.  It's 100% about the network and internet service delivery.

We are a small rural ISP doing gigabit fiber and I personally live in a city with a coax/fiber/FWA options.  Gaming works just fine on any of them.

I don't believe there are any cache boxes for games, I haven't seen anything along those lines but bandwidth is pretty cheap for us - it's getting it to peoples houses that's the expense.

Are there a lot of gamers in rural areas? Do the rural ISPs have challenges with reaching gaming servers. I do not know if gaming or caching or both a challenge for rural isps due to being distant from population centers and possibly caches
