Download speed looks good but the upload should be near to 900 kbps if I am right to assume StarHub is giving you 12/1 mbps.
Scan for possible spyware/malware using Lavasoft Ad-Aware and SpyBot. You can Google for them.
To check the reason for unstable ping times, do a tracert to your game server to see which hops give irregular ping times.

Wow, your speeds are incredible!
That's what I call tweaking for optimal performance! :)
ok...i have already scan and remove detected spyware/adware
got to watch and see will it be stable now....oh ya...the connection not only to the game...when it sux..even watching a video from yahoo or youtube take extremely slow time....1 more question...if i use a router(berklin)...do i nid to set up anything?(didnt always use)

You should use a router as it provides you a good hardware firewall.
After setting up the router, you will need to set your comp with a Static LAN IP address and do port forwarding of your router for your games.
See these links:

thx trogger...but i that's not what i'm asking :p what i'm asking is do i have to change any setting on the optimizer or something? cox i'm really noob on that :D

This is your TCP Analyzer report
MSS: 1460
MTU: 1500
TCP Window: 513920 (multiple of MSS)
RWIN Scaling: 3
Unscaled RWIN : 64240
Reccomended RWINs: 64240, 128480, 256960, 513920
This is from the custom setting I gave to you.
MTU 1500
TTL - 64
TCP Receive Window - 513920
Note that I have used MTU and TCP Receive Window as recommended by the TCP Analyzer. So after you set your router, do another TCP Analyzer report to check if your MTU changes. I do not expect it to change and no further changes will be required to TCP Window.

I do not know if this link with its latest firmware is suitable to StarHub's system. Apparently, Belkin does not have support for specific countries, unlike DLink:

Post your tracert results.
erm...what am i suppose to find there....do u recommend me changing a router? and what router it should be..and talk about tracert...i got a problem with pinging www.starhub.com..look below

This tracert was done without your router.
What brand and model is your modem? Seems it may already has a built-in router. Make sure your modem is placed a few feet away from any other electrical devices to avoid being affected by electromagnetic interference.
the tracert wasnt like that before...last time i can tracert www.starhub.com without time out....and it's motorola model sb5101
go to this web to see that product: http://broadband.motorola.com/consumers/products/sb5101/#

The timed out from hop 8 is probably caused by an intermediate router of StarHub that does not respond to pings. What is of interest are the irregular ping times at hop 1 and 2, or hop 1-3 if you have a router.
Irregular ping times may be caused by electromagnetic interference or an outdated firmware in your signal device.
The MTU 1432 that you get is probably due to a setting in your router. Log into your router and see if MTU is set to 1500 (for cable). If it is, then its firmware needs to be updated.
erm...log into my router already....but where do i see the mtu :confused:

MTU or MRU is usually under "WAN" setting - 'Internet WAN' - 'Connection Type?
It's 2 am here, have to go to bed.

I suggest you consider getting a new router. Here is a popular router (wired or wireless) among online gamesters in Singapore:
