Connection problems

[Falcon1]

Whenever I enter a server with more than 4 cars racing, I get a continuous lag until my connection to the server times out.This also happens when I'm racing at a server and more cars join so that the total exceeds 4....Someone told me this happens due to my ISP using some packet limiting.....Can this problem be fixed?I don't think it's worthy to buy an S2 license if I can't play online....

Do you experience this on all servers?
Do you have any other problems with online games?
Are you directly connected to the internet, or are you on a LAN of some kind?

We might beable to suggest something, if you can provide some answers to the above questions.

Also, in addition to Karl's Q's,

Do you have any firewall software.
Do you have any bandwidth hungry apps running in the background.

Dan,

Yes, I experience this on all servers and all the online games. I am directly connected to the internet and I don't use any firewall. Also there are no bandwidth hungry apps running in the background. With my old PSTN I didn't experience these problems.
thx

Your ISP does not sound game friendly, does Greece offer a choice of broadband suppliers without going to satellite (pings are too long)?
