Well I wanna see the status of all of our internet. Just post up:
ISP
Cable, Fiber, or DSL
Max Speed you pay for
Max Speed you get
How laggy you are in Black Ops when alone and when in a party of 6 of us
Just wanna see if Fiber vs DSL vs Cable makes any difference.

I cannot speak for BO. But MW2 I usually had a full set of bars and I am on wireless with about 1.2 down and 1.1 up in mbps.
A couple of those you listed also depend on the amount of users I think. And regardless of how it gets to you some ISP's will throttle certain traffic. Like the ports that PS# or XBOX use will be throttled to only allow a certain amount of traffic.

i am cable fibre optic. pay for up to 50mb.. get dl speeds of up to 70 mb. very poor upload speeds.
party of six depends if i am playing with you guys or solo.
solo and i am host.. 4 bars but terribly laggy. thing is.. i am always almost picked as host.
solo and rare time i'm not picked as host.. 4 bars.. and it's brilliant. kills so smoothly.

Fibre optic wireless, pay for 20 get 10. Solo, depends on host. I have played in US lobbies solo and got 3 bars no problem, I've played 'local' lobbies and got 2 bars, either way I still do well enough to at least break even.
Sh!t is so inconsistent it makes it hard to know when you're playing crap or the connection is fking you over. 2bars 30-3, 4bars 9-9...wtf.

I have comcast cable. I am paying for 1up/5down. When the guy was installing it, he said people in this area get around 17MB. On average, I get around 15-20 Mbs down. 1.60-2.80 up. I always notice im behind players a bit and lag spikes happen a few times a game.

Fiber - They offered employees free standard speeds of 15/3. Plus some shit went down and people lost their jobs so my 60/15 was turned back months ago.
Party of 6 and host, I'm behind most enemies.
Solo with 6 and host, playable.
Party of GW and host, can't move. I load 1 FPS like someone is pressing pause over and over.
Solo of Gw and host, playable with common lag we usually see.

Like Orrophin said, bars mean sht.
Locale only means sht.
Can have full games where I'm counting 1 1/2 seconds or more of delay against everyone, then have a game where I have that jump on ONE guy on the other team. Heck, I have a ton of games where I'm blasting dudes who are standing up, and someone on our team already killed them.
The lag is ridiculous 99% of the time, and I can't compensate with camping because I am seen looong before I see them. So I try to keep moving. Most guys I see face to face, I lose to, so my strategy is to get people not looking at me. Even then, I have to spray an area near them to find a hitmarker becuase they aren't actually where my screen says they are.

Max Speed you pay for: 20mbdl / 2mbul

Alone - Not laggy at all. Use the local search and my games are usually decent.
Party of 6 - I actually dont lag all that much. Ill notice it maybe 2 out of every 7 games we play. I put up with it.
The bars can be deceiving. You can have 4 bars, but everyone else in the lobby can be 2 seconds ahead of you. Yet you'll have 3 and you are ahead of others.
I wonder how they base the bar system in blops? Like.... if you are over a certain in game speed. Or im sure they use PING to determine your signal strength relative to the Host of teh game.
In which case the host should be untouchable. Yet we always get screwed over as Hosts. Host disadvantage. Giving bandwidth to other people in the lobby. Not sure if that happens, but its what ive chalked it up too. MW2 host, was godly. Cod4 host was GODLY. BLops host = Taking a big shit.
