It is very much necessary to have a good ISP for getting the connection with good and low latencies for gaming for games like Counter Strike. In India, the bigger service providers like BSNL, Airtel, Tata Indicom and Reliance have good network and maintenance. It is very important to select the service provider very wisely.
