    Your connection is actually only a 1mbit connection, to find your full potential download speed, you have to convert it into kilobytes.

    There are 8bits in a byte, so using this information we find that:

    1024 / 8 = 128

    128kbytes per second will be your maximum download speed

    Can you goto Start, Run, type "cmd", then in the new windows type " ping www.jolt.co.uk " and tell us the results? Sorry if you know all that, but Im just impatient and curious to see the performance for gaming..
