I would never pay to join this site. The connectivity is pathetic. There is nothing wrong with my broadband as I am streaming TV without any problems whatsoever

Streaming can use buffers. A chess game can't.

There is more to it than a speed test would measure. The route the data has to take to get to and fro may have issues that are beyond your control. You could talk with your ISP to test the line and they may be able to help.
