weather generally shouldn't affect your DSL... it runs through a phone line... however if the insulation is breached (tree root hitting it, worm or something chewing through it) then rain can cause an issue ....

I'm guessing you've gotten DSL within the past 3 years or so? (so it's a bundled loop... piggy backs w/your voice/phone line)

Do you have all the filters installed? when you notice the slower response do you hear any static on your voice line (could indicate a breach in the insulation for the phone line)

ALso what is your processor % when playing the game.

Just because you are gaming on line your processor and memory take a huge hit.
Make sure you are not hitting any bottlenecks with your processor or memory.

Also clean out all your temp files. FOr some reason this slows down internet usgage.

I'll clear my temp files,as for the processor its find and plenty of memory. This happened overnight so i'm thinking that it was the weather. I planning on cable soon as is cause I want true speed. Thanks for the input i'll check out the percentage when I get home and see what is going on.
