Cable and DSL / routers were available in 1999 or shortly thereafter, and given the minimal system requirements that classic EQ ran on, I'd suggest that many people could do so. I was a poor college student and I had a pair of EQ-worthy machines and was boxing by early 2001.

Given, the number of people able to do so has certainly been inflated; but the number of people willing to play one account for free vs two for monthly donations would likely balance that.
