Is this a good speed??

lol

yes its a good speed.

as long as you have a DSL/Broadband connection or better (high speed works too) you can get online, although by the sound of your download speed you will probably have a lot of lag (my download speed is 175kbps-200kbps and I still get lag sometimes).

Here is mine. I get minimal lag unless I play with someone with a crappy connection.

You could buy a long ethernet cord or buy a wireless router. To tell you the truth. The best internet for your buck that I have seen is AT&T DSL. You pay 20 bucks for pretty fast DSL. You pay just $5 bucks more so 25$ a month for double the speed. I download almost 2 MB a second which isn't bad and never have lag. Try it out. Call AT&T.

Upload speed is what you're really looking for for online gaming. I think I'm going to upgrade my internet package so I can host more on Warhawk.

I know a couple people in India on KZ2 ... one of them is ranked immensely High. So if .77 is true, you should be okay. navstar29

Ha, I'm fine with the DL speed, but I really need an upload speed boost. Right now I can only host 24 and I'd like to host 32 player clan servers. Unfortunately the next package they offer is 50down 10up which is kind of overkill and it's expensive.

this is mine, the speed on the modem is 16MB download but iv got a break in the cable i had run so im stuck at the other side of the house using wireless for the time being.

Ha I owned your speed

Blackviper.. where in india are you ? I'm in Bombay . Airtel is the only good option available right now. I have 512 download and upload and it works just fine. latency is about 26msbatravarun

At least 1 mb/s if you want no lag

thelastguy

not true.

It has more to do with ping times then download speeds. if you have a slower dl speed and a low ping you'll play games fine. a minimun of 1 mb/s is usually recommended. but the number you really need to know is ping. try to find a server 50 miles away.

my ping is 43 ms on a server 50 miles away and i get almost no lag. if i play games only in my region i get 0 lag. except for things like bullet lag. that kinda stuff is impossable to avoid though. I also host a lot of matches on KZ2 and never have any complaints of people lagging when im the hsot.

as for running your internet fr away. you could either use a wireless connection or buy a really long ethernet cable. if your access point is being blocked my a lot of walls and such you may find some drops or slow connection speeds. i usually try to avoid wireless connections if at all possable.

Did a quick speed test using my notebook placed half-a-floor away from the wireless router :

While my notebook connects to my WiFi router very efficiently (for Toronto, Canada), my PS3 cannot connect to it wirelessly without some severe latency issues.

I had to resort to acquiring a very long ethernet cable extending at over 30 feet in length to connect my PS3 directly to the router.

However, because of this, I rarely ever get lag, receiving full network speed from both my router and from my networked PCs.

this is from my laptop 2 floors up from my router.
