    Default Connection problems

    This may be the wrong place to ask this, but I need some help here.

    Recently I have been playing NTW2 and it says (to me) that someone is having connection problems and the game halts. But to everyone else, its actually me but the game resumes in about 10 seconds. Also, I use skype when I play and never have had any problems in the past with it, but when I'm in game the skype crashes and my call ends. Sometimes my msn will also sign itself out, but i'm still connected to the internet.

    Any ideas of what this is?


    Thanx alot for your help.

    Wrong place indeed , but, are you going through a router for your internet connection? Sometimes certain packets, or certain data volumes, cause certain shoddy or old routers to drop connection for a second.

    There are other things that can cause it, like a bad driver for your network interface in your computer. It's kind of a hard problem to diagnose

    I agree with A. P. This is about hardware, not a game issue.

    Well I called my net provider and so far all is good on that front. So it looks like I'll need to install some spyware blocker or something and do some defraging (which I haven't done since I bought my system....a year ago.)
