Well it all depends on what kind of games and how many people are you planning on hosting ?

Bell Sympatico has a Upload cap at 13k which means you connot really host a good game without lagging big time.

The most you can host is 1 or 2 if lucky. Games Like Unreal Tournament itsa hard to host even a gamer with 4 with Sympatico. To hot games you need Upload speed.. DOesn't matter your download speed but you need atleast 30 to 40k to host agood 6 player game..

All i can say is find a better ISP with a higher Upload Cap.. There's nothing you can do right now about hosting off your DSL line.. Sorry.
