WHICH GAME?

What kind of computer? (Make/Model or Specs)

Which version of Vista?

Internet connection provider? (Comsuck, AT&P, AOHell)

Internet connection type? (Cable/DSL)

I have tried to log onto online gaming services for months without success. I
can go anywhere on the Internet with no problem but if I try to get on a
online game it just sits there and will not connect. It usually just times
out and says things like no connection made etc. I could connect with my dial
up but after going to DSL I never could connnect again. My DSL provider said
they don't know why. Go figure.
