1. Close down other applications that use the internet, i.e. instant messengers (MSN, AIM etc)
2. Optimize your game settings. All popular online games have network settings, its just a case of finding them. Search online for a guide to tweaking your game.
3. Configure your firewall properly. Badly configured firewalls can stop some packets getting through, causing loss or lag.
4. See how many other people are on the network. If you have a home network, other people using it will take some of the bandwidth away, and your gaming will also be slowing their internet down.
5. Speed up your PC. Slow PCs may not be able to keep up with the amount of packets. Close antivirus programs and other background applications.
6. Use a wired connection. If you have a laptop, simply connect your computer directly to your home router/modem via a Ethernet cable. This can help speed your internet speeds up by having you directly connected into the network instead of being a wireless signal which can slow down upload/download rates.
