3 Second Pause on Online Games

**JunkBarMan** · 10-17-2004, 10:19 PM

I usually try to find the servers with the lowest ping, that way it gives me a better chance of not lagging. Also, if you don't know, turn off any background programs you may be running. Those are just a few of the things I try to look for.

oh, it might also be your set-up is too weak to play the games that you want to play or that you have too much stuff running....or the spyware is hogging up your resources

I am connected wirelessly to the internet. Could that be the problem?

Short answer to that wireless thing, "Yes".

Once even when i had wireless i had not gotten this pause for like a week. Im kindof confused. Did I feck up the internet somehow?

If it affects streamin video and other internet activities then it is most likely your cabel. if you live in a high popilated area with many other cable connections at peak time your rate of transfer will vary below what you would normaly expect from your package , also if your ISP is well known for being a bit on the crap side change ISP (i cant comment on your ISP as im fae bonnie scotland :p . If you are in good range of your Wireless AP and theres not a huge amout of traffic that shouldnt be your problem. Also as suggested by a few people check for spyware etc and check out the tweaks guide its damn good!
