Experiencing some incredible lag last night (06/11/05). I think something is wrong with my Internet connection.. will be 6 days before they can send someone out. There was a couple of power outages during a big storm a few nights ago that may have something to do with it. My packet loss was at 60. Anyone else have any problems recently? Hopefully it clears up soon since I'm dying to play again. I tried a few different servers same problem, so I'm pretty sure it's my connection. If anyone has any ideas/suggestions please let me know, thanks.

Had some of the same issues -- ran a speedtest from DSLReports, was getting 350kbps upload, but only 16kbps download! Unplugged my DSL modem, threw it in the freezer for about five minutes to chill it out (it was very hot), plugged it back in, and it was back to my norm (800+ down, 375 up). Weird, but it worked. Was it just the time out to refresh itself, or the cooling of the freezer, or the warning of what happened to the chicken next to it in the freezer? (that's one of my favorite jokes! ;D I don't see it posted, so I'll have to put it up on the Just for Fun board) Who knows? -- but it did help me out.

lol I guess it's worth a shot, if that doesn't work I'll impale it on a spit and BBQ it and use the chicken instead, it might work better as a modem at this point.

woohoo!
:clap: I think it's all fixed and will test it out tonight, the cable company did something outside and they didn't have to replace the modem. It apparently was an area wide problem, damage caused from severe weather.

Yes, we close the game servers on Mondays at 2230EDT for prayer meeting, and on Thursdays at 2100EDT for Bible study (both of which meet on our Ventrilo server). They usually last 45 minutes to an hour, and then the game servers are opened back up. Sorry I forgot to mention that in my post :bag: -- I forgot that it was Monday (shoulda known!).
