Currently I have Rogers@home and I HATE IT!!
Any q3 server I try to play on, I get horrible packet loss. I live in London Ontario and have my modem hooked up into a 5 port 10/100 hub which shares with 3 computers.

Does any1 recomend any DSL providers in my area? right now i am leaning towards http://www.mdirect.net/.

Also, if i decide to go with DSL, can I still go with the same setup I have now? Will DSL providers give me 2 extra IP #s for an extra charge? And does DSL work well in a hub setup?

Any advice is appreciated!

Yes, you should be able to use the same setup, with minor configuration changes of course...

That really depends on the DSL provider...

And does DSL work well in a hub setup?

Should be the same as the cable modem...
