ok, noe to tell you, which connection you are using? for on-line gaming, i'll recommend Nildram (though am not a gamer), but my class fellow use to play on-line games (dont remember their names), but this service is truly made for gamers.
as once a person came to me (his mom bought him a ATi 9800XT 256MB) rom me, and for that he has to upgrade his full system. still he mailed me that he is lagging in frame rates. I recommended him Nildram (my friend was using 2MB i think), but you can as well go for 512K on good speed DSL providers, like i'm on Plus (cool), I had used Zen,
(cool). also your hardware is as well dependent, you cannot squeeze out the juice from a cheap modem,get some good one (if you are on thrid brand name)
for confirmation of your hardware (that it hasnt got a fault), try soem of ur friends, with different DSL connections, or as well invitre them to your home with their systems to work on ur DSL. it at lesat wil clear u out, whats happening.
