Latency Issue

[Sh|te]

I have got 256kb ADSL

Soho-sw8p+ Switch
(http://www.cameo.com.tw/pdf/SOHO-SW8P-SW8P+.pdf)

Billion ADSL Modem/Router
(http://www.hardwareseeker.com/resourcelink.html?rlid=55410)

2 pc's, both are running Windows XP Sp1. I have got the modem running into network card on main pc then another network card from the main pc goin to the switch then the other pc hooks up to the switch. I go to play CS ... either one of the pc's connect to a server 30-40 ping, as soon as the other pc joins ping goes up n up n up ... etc.

Please HELP

You should configure like this, no need for another NIC and ICS;

DSL Line ==WAN Port> Router/Modem <LAN Port== Switch ==> both PCs

That connection of yours isn't really great. A ping below 100 is good. My brother (I don't play CS) get "moving" ping as well, between 30 and 200 on a similar setup. Though we have 10Mbit up/down.
