k my modem was working fine until 2-4 days ago
i play a large MMORPG game called "world of warcraft"
i usually hit 300-500, no lag, all fine
then i was lagging really bad, i restarted
Connected at 19.2 (or below)
*note: i could connect to 50+ kbps but after a while, it was dieing and i could see my ping go from 327-->10,000+!
with no hope left, i installed my old computer's modem (same ol' dumb connection), then i reformatted (wow that barely did anything!)
i bought new phone jacks, tried my friend's isp (netzero-also gave crap results)
i usually use MSN/MetConnect
please help me! my comp specs are as follows:

2.26 ghz p4
512 sdram
lucent win modem (old computer's modem)
GTW V.92 Voice modem

i dont know what else to post, so if you could please fix my problem, i would be very happy :)!
***been using computer since summer of '02

Ask telco to check the line
Connect modem directly to demarc to see if there is any change
