You quite literally dial a number through your telephone line for internet; 56Kb/s.

Anyways, check your ISP speeds man. You could be on the low end.

No its not dsl. lol.

 

In the words of wikipedia (because I am to lazy and busy to type it up myself)

Quote

Dial-up Internet access is a form of Internet access that uses the facilities of the public switched telephone network (PSTN) to establish a connection to an Internet service provider (ISP) by dialing a telephone number on a conventional telephone line. The user's computer or router uses an attached modem to encode and decode information into and from audio frequency signals, respectively.

I started my interest in the internet with a US Robotics internal 28.8k modem. Well it was my dads but you get the point. It sounded similar to this.

I've never heard of this

ethernet is a wire and protocol, not much to do with your internet. 99% of the time your problem isnt ethernet.

your router could be terrible. If you are on wifi it could also be that too.

39ms, less than 10Mb/s and less than 1Mb/s upload in EU is terrible unless you're in some remote area far far away from civilisation. its not much to do with your bandwidth but lag in fps games is usually caused by either a bad ISP, a bad router or a bad PC. a bad router is easy to fix, simply get a good one and use QoS if there are others around. a bad PC just means you need faster components. a bad ISP just means a call to them.

 

also i dont like the people who usually play games like dota 2, lol, cs go. So many whiney kids and you sound just like one of them. Just how old are you?

Just to confirm, you are connected via a wire to the router, correct?

go to portforward . com and follow the steps for your games ports

helps a lot and you can setup windows firewall(or yours) with the same rules

I guess I'll try changing router but is there any way to check if it's bad?

Dial up internet as in straight into the computer?

dial up is when your internet bundle is connected to your phone line, in that case, anyone using the phone (land line) the internet connection is going to suffer and if your modem is on then any calls you make (on land line) is going to get "distorted"... that's what i remember anyways

do you know how old your router is? sometimes old routers perform poorly because of "wear and tear"

the router came with the house?

you might find some hints on the back of the router

inspect it's current state:

      - is it beat up?

      - does it look old fashioned or just dirty and dusty?

      - does it get very warm after being on for a while? (if it's in a cramped place like behind a cough or dresser for example then try to relocate it to a more open location just so it can cool down efficiently)

      - does it switch off from time to time?

 

i know that this phrase is kinda overused but did you try turning it off and back on again??

did you, by any chance, put it in rice?

[Lurick]

How are you connected, directly via cable from the PC to the router, or via a wall jack, or via powerline, or something else?
