I would say go here and test your connection and tcp/ip settings and it will tell you what needs to be changed. Then do it in that program you have like the MTU and etc.

Speedguide even has a serious little tweaking tool that optimizes the most giving TCP settings. It can at least make websurfing noticeably faster on a broadband connection. As far as online gaming performance goes there simply is no magic that works, except for in-game settings like rate and packet settings of course.
