Ok ppl, went to dslreports.com and got my UL/DL speeds and they were 457/309 respectively, the problem is, i cannot play multiplayer games for ****, cuz my ping is higher than 56.6 ppl (I am DEAD serious), is there ANYTHING you ppl know or a place i can go to try and remedy this problem? My ping isn't always high it rises and falls (i.e. sometimes it'll be 87, then bam 350+, and on fast servers too....) any ideas at all? It's driving me nuts, I can't even play CS effectively, and that's after i tweaked cfg.....
thanx
Sean
