Hey,

I was just wondering if you guys want, go to the link I posted below, and check your bandwidth speed. If you can, post your performance number, usually in kilobits or megabits per second. Also, let us know how well online gaming works for you, preferable using the Playstation online gaming.

-Thanks

Generally latency (you can use ping as a measure) is as important as your actual throughput, both up and down.

Annoying thing is if I go to Time Warner's "internet speed test" it says I'm running 12.5Mbps. Which is what i should be running. But they go off the numbers on their speed test has me at 4.5 Mb Big difference when gaming. Makes me hate COD4 sometimes.

I have Verizon FIOS. I want to upgrade my service, but I guess I shouldn't have any complaints.

this is from my laptop, which is running through a wireless connection, but so is my PS3

I know, it's horrible, but I actually don't experience any lag to speak of (assuming no one is downloading stuff on the computer)

I very, very rarely experience lag. but I think that's because my ping is good (the lower the better, right?)

9ms ping!!

You might not think you have lag but if you play a very skilled game that requires precise timing you'll notice huge lag, especially in games like Tekken where moves come down to single frame rates. I usually don't play online if my ping is anything over 30ms.
