2 other people's connections sucks
3 the server sucks
4 the server has a bad internet connection
5 packet loss
6 far a way from server.

in non 1337 speak, you might need to close all programs being used by...the current pc user....close em all except explorer.exe or any system and network processes...stufff

get Aston from astonshells.com it replaces explorer.exe with a program taking up less resources..it makes me w00t

Your download speed : 1760321 bps, or 1760 kbps.
A 214.8 KB/sec transfer rate.
Your upload speed : 230229 bps, or 230 kbps.
