DSL isn't mean't for gaming. It drops packets like god-knows-what and has a tendency of simply stopping all together at random.
If you have a choice between DSL and dial up, you'll find that dial up will actually let you play with less lag.

I think the time a player can be out-of-contact with the server, before it disconnects them, should be lowered. :/


And again, I can't stress enough: DO NOT PLAY ANY ONLINE GAMES WITH DSL
I play with DSL, and I don't experience ANY problems. And yet, when I try using AOL at my friend's house, I experience a lot more lag problems.

Did you think before you posted that message? I really don't think you did; none of it is true.
