Iuse SBC DSL, I have the middle of the road package which is suppose to give me a MAX of 1.5mbps however, every speed test I have done (including their own) shows me at 330kbps both u/l & d/l. Is this good? As in, good for playing online games, or does it suck? I could get roadrunner cable modem, it is just twice the price. Any other suggestions or thoughts would be good. Thanks!

I used to play and host games with a 120kbps connection just fine. So you shouldn't have anything to worry about. :D

Dont use kbps as a measure, its a meaningless term modem makers back in the 80s and 90s used to make their products sound faster. Just use KiB and MiB like everyone else.
