Counter Strike Source certainly does not require 256k upload to work properly, tons of players all over play with 128k upload quite happily.

If you were maxing the upload you'd be seeing packet loss as well.

Sure you aren't running your rate too high? You're aware that most servers don't really support a rate beyond maybe 10000?

Also your local area might be a little oversubscribed, loads of reasons. Phone support and ask them to check it out for you.

Again 128k upload is ample to play games, it's not the width of your upload that's causing you problems but the latency.
