Ok,I resolved it.When I ran speed opt. from fios,I also ran a program opt as well.Tune-up 2007.Internet and connection option to 10 mbps.I found out that was the problem.I reset the tune up setting to 512 internet and restarted the computer.Tried the game and it works fine.So if all you gamers out there has laggy game play online,and you have some sort of Tune-Up program,go in and set it to DSL/Cable 512 and below.Then run the FIOS optimization.It will work fine

If not, then...

#2 Is wireless is in the router enabled?

#3 If wireless in the router is enabled, what level of wireless security is it set to?

  • How are you connecting between your PC and the Actiontec?  Wired or wireless?
    If wireless, then there could be any number of wireless issues slowing you down.
  • What speed tier are you on?  30/10 doesn't match any of the available tiers.
    I'm guessing you have 25/25.  If so, your upload is subpar.
  • Was the speediest wired or wireless. If wireless, what results do you get wired?
    Speedtests should always be run wired.
  • What OS on your PC?  Have your run the FIOS optimizer?

Please post a traceroute to the game server you use.
