RE: Prontera and other places too.
Hehe, oh the difference between different countries. In some parts of the world 6mbps is considered a bit slow, including here. I don't know anyone locally who doesn't have at least 24mbps. But there are (several big first-world, not just third-world) countries where 6mbps would be considered in the upper range, since ISPs hasn't bothered getting their act together due to low competition.
Anyway, 6mbps is more than enough for RO. So thats not it. But it could still be your connection, there is no correlation with the speed you have and latency (the time it takes for data sent to reach the ro server, and back to you). If latency is high you'll experience that things are slow. You could have the fastest connection in the world, but still have high latency.
Also if you're getting DCed a lot it could be a problem with your ISPs equipment (or possibly your own router, if possible try connecting directly to the internet without it plugged in). You could try reporting it to them, but unfortunately that almost never leads anywhere. You could try switching ISP of course, if there is another good one in your area.
Also make sure you don't have any viruses or other malware on your computer, some of those use the internet connection heavily, and the stress can cause distruptions on other connections on the computer/network. And also close bittorrent and other p2p apps you have running those can distrupt things too.
