HELP Latency issue

[Verriit]

I did all that with the firewall. Thanks for all your responses burningforce

It's really odd. I start the game and for the first 3 mins I'm running fine and then all of sudden latency jumps up to 400 and then 1000 and then comes back to 400 and stays there the rest of the time. I'm also noticing the same sort of trend when I'm downloading things. I will start a download and it will download uninterrupted, after about 30 seconds it's like the download freezes and the progress bar stops and it stays in that stage for 10 seconds and then starts again. I don't know if it's possible but is my computer/router only allowing a certain amount of data to come through in a given time period?

i kind of have this problem, but not as bad as you have it. basically without the router I am at 50ms-120ms on Wow, with the router i usually hover around 230ms-360ms. I am using a linksys WRT54GL router with the dd-wrt firmware and I read the dd-wrt wiki and setup my router (i believe properly). I can not find my xp disc, so i can not verify if it is a windows 7 issue or not. So i am going to check out my router settings again and check google for some info, i'll pass along what I find
