Question: How about a forum section for ISP/connection tips?

[Tekkie]

As most gamers need a good connection to get good performance from the games they play how about a forum section for chat and reviews of ISP's and a help section within it to aid people to test thier connection speed/ping and so on.

Its a really important part of online games and I think deserves its own section. Lots of good information could be easily found here.

Awesome

It would be extra helpful to have a short FAQ in this area on:
How to check ping,
How to check connection speed
etc,

so that people who request help are able to provide that information from the get-go.

Yes, I'm a complete technopeasant, a section like this will be really useful for me (It took me 3 months to figure out how to open the ports on my router so I could play Guild Wars )
