OK, I hope this isn't breaking any rules den, but i have a question.
Right now, I'm currently on a 10GB MAX/128k plan.
Using speedtest, I have 4000Kb/s download speed and 85Kb/s upload.
Now heres the flaw, when I'm in 1v1 situation,(like turning a corner situation) I always feel like I'm in the losing team, and after watching the killcam, it doesn't even show me looking at the guy, (even though i am) what i see is me shooting at thin air. And before I go on, Yes, I had green ping.
Whats wrong? Is it my upload speed? Or does everyone get this?
Oh, and after you're comment, can you please post you're Plan and Data cap?
Thanks Bros,
EDIT: Im planing on getting a Capture Card in July, so if you dont get what i mean and can wait for a few months, then il post a vid on youtube showing exactly what i mean.

I never understood the whole data cap thing, it seems utterly pointless and its a waste of money. I have AT&T DSL Xtreme which is around 3.5MB/s dl speed and its LIMITLESS for only about $35 a month.

yeah, where i live, the plan im on now cost $60, which is $30 USD. Going any higher would cost heaps, thats why i wanna know if 85Kb/s is too slow . . .

Your upload speed should really be at least 200kb/s That's minimum.
You'll still have an unreliable connection until about 350kb/s

I pay for 10MB unlimited, I get this for around £10 per month, so about $20 USDper month. The above shows I actually somehow manage to get more than 10 some of the time but never below 10.

You appear to be on the 360 eh? I don't really know how 360 games work, but I'm guessing the "host" ends up running the server, acting as the data hub for the entire game. (Someone please give me a clue here.) If so, that means hosts have the benefit of a fantastic ping (essentially 0) but the curse of needing more bandwidth. In such a case you (and everyone playing in the game) might be better off if someone else hosted.
Until I know specifically how the 360 client/server setup works, this is all guessing.
If, on the other hand, the servers reside remotely and the host merely controls the game settings, then your bandwidth should be sufficient. Maybe you are experiencing packet loss. Try playing a game of Quake Live on the PC (it's free) and enable the lagometer. If you see lots of ups and downs, you have connection issues.
