    Well you are faster than 68% of the US, but the US has sh*t internet, so rather meh.

    Since someone necro'd this topic, I've been having some issues with my internet lately. I pay for 11 down and 1 up, but most evenings I don't get anywhere near that. For example, last night I was somewhere near 0.8 down and 0.4 up and a 150-200 ms ping over 150 miles. It really sucks because that's when I use XBL.

    I read somewhere that cable connections suffer when there are other users in your area online. I just seriously doubt that is the case since I don't live in a densely populated area (10,000 people in a 15-20 mile radius).
    I had an appointment for a tech to come out and look at it, but it just didn't seem realistic for someone to come out and diagnose a problem that wasn't happening at the time of their visit (the phone tech support agreed with me).

    Has anyone else had any experience with this sort of problem? If so, please help me, it's getting very frustrating to die from lag.

    I've never heard of cable connection suffering due to any # of people being on. It can be due to other sources using your network while you're on XBL (i.e someone else connecting to your internet) or if you're computer is using internet while you're on.

    Then again I've had that problem for so long my reactions have adapted to the god-awful lag and I only fall off the map sometimes.

    Yeah, I figured it might be due to someone or something using up resources, so I disabled my wifi and disconnected my xbox and still have about 0.8 down and 0.1 up.

    Also, I have yet to fall off the map due to lag, but I'm sure it's coming... :|
