freezing, crashing and connectivity problems

[s0cr8t3s]

Ok, In a previous thread someone said that when they tried to zone to a place they already visited the game crashed, this is the same for me. But I have other problems...

1) Whenver I am in a zone with other players, I get a huge lag spike then get disconnected.

2) similair to 1, but when I attack something and a TON of other stuff aggros (like in Unrest I hit one thing and the entire house aggros) I get a huge lag spike and disconnect/CTD.

3) Sometimes if I die, select a character and enter the world or zone, the game CTD or freezes and I have to reset.

Notes: I have a 56k modem (but conenct at 50.6)
I do not have a firewall up
I am part of a LAN but am the main computer for internet

If any of the problems (Including the crash when zoning to a place previously visited) involve ports, where are they again? It's been so long since I've messed with them.

Any help is appreciated

thats your issue, the current reliece is NOT dial up friendly, give them time and it will be tho.
