Hi there, I really need some advice on 56k modems. I currently have an MR Modem and i use the internet mostly for gaming. When i play UnrealTournament i get pings of around 270 - 300. Because this is very pants i want to get a new modem that gives me pings of say 150 - 200. It would have to be an external modem and i was wondering i would be better off if i bought this modem as i don't know the modem i have is good or bad....

Wahey, 1st Page!
A great way to do websites is with Fireworks and Dreamweaver. DW, like nearly all web programs, is fairly usless. It's the least useless of them all, but is no substitute for a bit more time and an HTML editor like 1st Page. That's the best option.
However, combine DW with Fireworks and you're flying. Firework's main use is for image slicing. It's great at it, and it's even better at it if you're using Dreamweaver. Also, it's a great graphics proggy in itself but you can always import stuff.

Flash does indeed rule and wees mightilly on all web media from a great height. It's a shame it's so hard to use!
Also it helps to get an isp. Freeserve is easily the worst (I got pings of 300 plus). BT Interent is slightly better. However I got claranet anytime 15 pounds a month and it's brilliant - I get pings of 150!!

Another thing you MUST do is optimise your connection. This can help your ping alot.
