I am currently running COD MW2 on my iMac in bootcamp running Windows 7 - 64 bit edition.

I quite often get picked as host and then BOY do all the complaints start coming at me.

GET OUT OF THE GAME YOU ****ER! YOU ARE LAGGING THE **** OUT OF US!!!

Well, they act as if I do it on purpose! I am sure you all know what I mean that are bothering to read this. I back out and reconnect and try to resume a quiet peaceful game of COD until I get picked yet again as host and the above happens all over again.

I would not host the games if I had a choice but perhaps there is something I can do on my end with my router that perhaps I am not aware of.

Currently I have Brighthouse Broadband Cable. I get 40mbps down and 5 mbps up. Now that is out of the way. Other than that I am connected wirelessly to my Airport Extreme Base station which is about 10-15ft away in a nice high open position on a table. The Extreme is just set up as a wireless station and I have not touched any of the settings of it as I don't really know what any of it means.

What am I doing or not doing that can be causing problems and is there anything I can do to the Extreme in terms of connection or ports, etc that can resolve my problem with "bad hosting?"

PS My iMac has 8gb of RAM, ATI 5750 1GB card
