Hey guys, I have a question. I use to have a modem that had just the computer hooked into it. The game ran like a bute. Just a couple of days ago, my parents switched to AT&T. They have the phonelines in my house hooked into a box that connects with my computer also. I was wondering how I could make this quicker because in some servers my ping went up 15-50% of my normal ping. Do you guys have any tips to make this quicker or no?

Umm... not really sure I understand the question (Yes, I understand what you are telling me, but unless you provide old modem specs (and who you had before) vs new, i can't really tell you if that's the problem), the only thing I can suggest is check to make sure you've used 4-wire instead of 2 from the phone jack to the modem......

There's your fucking problem.

They've been good up until about this spring, where it will disconnect randomly, and that's at the max speed they offer. You can ask your parents if you can upgrade, as there is a 20ms ping difference between the 6Mb and 3Mb plan.

We just upgraded 3 days ago to this piece of donkey dung and we can't upgrade for like another year I think. The old modem I had by SBC was a SIEMENS SpeedStream4100 Ethernet ADSL Modem. The new one is a ATT modem that has local ethernet, USB PC, Wireless, Phone 1 and 2, and Broadband on the front. Not sure on the name but could someone look into it anymore details please ask.
