    There's no real need to get anything better, a 2mbit/256k connection should be good enough for online gaming.

    BT offer 10meg connections in certain areas - do a search. There's plenty of other providers who can offer faster speeds, perhaps branch into eircom "business" lines

    It depends on where you are in the country, BT are offering up to 8meg service, i called there Sales department, not available where i am at the moment. I'm not to sure on what the upload would be, but pretty sure better then what you have at the moment.
