When it finishes its test it'll tell you your ping. That's the ms latency to their server and a good indication of your lag for most servers. It should generally be about 40 for a good connection. Also, for online gaming, your download speed doesn't really matter but your upload speed does. If it's about 1Mb/s, you're doing just fine. At about .25, you might be seeing some issues.

Just one question: is your connection 10MB/sec or 10mbps?

The bandwidth is not a big deal above a certain threshold.

So how do you measure or check your latency? *NM*

Generally, go to speedtest.net

Again, for the upload speed, do you really mean 1MB/sec or 1mbps?

Either number is well above the required minimum. That said, 1mbps makes more sense.

I'm a elitist codger who hates change, so it makes me unhappy for no good reason.

I don't need it. I am sitting at a PC powerful enough to play any of these games with no hitches.
