Alright i tried downloading Oqueue again (just in case) although i had the newest version. It doesn't seem to have any impact on my connection as it still sits on 6 - 1 right now. Furthermore i have trimmed my friend list from 55 to around 40 and have removed almost all alliance players.
I guess there isn't anymore i can do to improve my connection other than switching back to alliance or move server?
Thanks for your help so far.
