hmm..where to start. first off..make sure your going into server where your ping is low. the smaller the ping..the better the gameplay will be for you.

do you have a ton of programs running in the background when you play the game?

wireless dsl....what are the advertised speeds up and down?

firewall...should not affect the actual gameplay. it would effect the actual conencting to servers.

what operating system do you use. winxp? win me? 98?

so far your specs that you have listed are prolly better than half of us who play this game.
