UPC and Fifa '11 on xbox live

    How's it going, Lads? Im new to this forum site so be nice.
    Just recently changed from ****ty Eircom broadband to 20mg UPC broadband.

    Before when i used to play fifa '11 on xbox live with Eircom, it used to lag constantly during the peek times obviously due to contention and because i lived out in the countryside with ****ty exchange servers!

    But then i moved into Limerick, near thomond to be exact and when i got UPC's 20mg, i thought my problems were solved. Unfortunately, for some reason it still lags when i play fifa'11 at peek times (6pm-10pm).

    Can anyone tell me what factors to consider for playing online when it lags?

    Thank you in advance.

    You'll also need to take into account whether your Xbox is hard wired or is connecting wirelessly, if your NAT is open/closed, ping, and the internet connection of who you are playing with.
