I just switched from spint 1.5 dsl to cable 3.0 dsl. Now when i try to play...as soon as the game starts, It crashes my dsl and I have to reboot the modem. Other games work fine but playing DS crashes the cable. CAN ANYONE HELP?

sounds like your modems being flooded with information, if its a USB modem which i suspect, this is very comon, its flooding the USB port with 2 much info there for overloading and the pc shuts the port down untill u reboot the modem.....the only solution for this is to either us Ethernet, or a external powered USB hub...
hope this helps
