winsock2 problems

I am having major problems with an online game called Quake2.
I have a 28.8 with the proper drivers for this particular modem.  My Matrox
mystique drivers are fully up to date and so is my system files.  I have
MTUspeed and have all my hardware correctly configured.
When I play a game when the net is busy, the server sends massive packets of
info going upto 5-6kb/s which my modem cannot handle.  I then have to sit
there until the server ceases sending me anymore things, then I can try
again.
I have tried everything to stop this including trying to get back to winsock
1.1 but I can't seem to be able too.  When I use ws2bakup and then reset the
machine to try the old winsock 1.1 the modem dials up fine but I cannot send
or receive information.  What am I doing wrong?
If anyone can answer any of my problems please help me I would be very
grateful
Thanks in advance
