Adding a 6th

[Twiz]

So I got the coercer up to 24 and I'm starting to notice a lot of lag going from 5 to 6 toons. I'll be running around in an empty zone like Stormhold or Fallen Gate and my toons will be ghosting all around me.

I use 2 machines to box:

Main PC
Core2Duo E6600 - 2.4ghz
4gb DDR2-800
8800GTS 640Mb
WD 7200rpm

Laptop
Gateway P7805
Core2Duo P8400 - 2.2ghz
4gb
9800m GTS 1Gb

Both comps are running Vista 64-bit with the latest updates. I run 3 instances on each and use HotKeyNet to send broadcasts. I'm on a cable connection that consistently gets 18-22k over a wireless G network.

What typically happens is the latop will "finish" the fight about 10 secs ahead of the main pc. The main pc will show all the toons ghosting off into never never land and pulling aggro, etc.

Has anyone experienced this? My thought is that it's hardware related and that the main PC is having a hard time keeping up with the laptop. I figured the main PC would have the horsepower with all settings turned down (and they are) but is 3 instances + Hotkeynet too much for it?

Thanks in advance!
