So, I fairly recently purchased a wireless network card to connect to the uni network; problem is, I keep getting humungous lag spikes and anything between 26 and 9000ms, which is making the game very hard to play (to say the least).

I'm pretty certain this isnt due to the network since a neighbour can play WoW smoothly with a constant green bar.

Anyone know what's up? =[

Distance to the hub? Walls etc? When you get a spike try doing a ping or traceroute to google. Microwaves can also disturb wireless networking connectivity....

Well, the signal isnt too bad (50-60%), I could understand if I had minimal connectivity....

I guess I'll need to go hide some microwaves. :smt096
