If you crash on zoning/camping try setting compatibility mode on eqgame.exe to xp sp2 or sp3.

Other games don't matter - they're TCP so packets are resent if they're not acknowledged. EQ doesn't do that - they figure the missed packets aren't "important" because mostly it's positional data. It's from an era where we were all on dial-up. I started playing with a 33.6 and the upgrade to 56k was amazing. A whole mp3 in under 10 minutes!
