You have a very low connection speed, so if that is being shared by multiple devices you will struggle

Following my first topic on  having a very high ping when multiple clients are connected to my modem (here), I am here to ask again for advice in dealing with this same problem.

 

I have a 1.5mbps line and about 5 wireless and 2 wired devices running on a single modem, complete with a CCTV routing the modem for an intranet viewing. What can I do to ensure that my games run at a low ping despite having multiple devices staying connected? I am currently using a DSL-2640B REV T1 modem provided by my ISP.

 

Will changing to a more powerful modem solves the issue? Or is the bottleneck comes from the slow internet speed? 

 

FYI, my mom uses her phone to facebook a lot. 

 

Hope that some of you can shed some light in this, thanks!

a new modem wont do you much good here, talk to your ISP about higher speed plans.
