i just had 56k like a month and a half ago and made the switch to cable finally, back when i had 56k i would say that it is quite easier to kill with 56k because u can run around the person and shoot before they relize that you even moved....i could still die but it seemed easier to kill on a slower connection, but i def. like cable better cuz everything runs much smoother and u never get accused of lagging or anything like u do on 56k which every kill i got on that everyone would say didnt count cuz i was a "lagger" but oh well that's overwith..
