All of a sudden I have started getting a high ping when going to MultiPlayer games in COD2.
I play on a laptop and it is a wireless feed coming from upstairs.
We have a D-Link that goes thru a Lynxis router that is set up to Vonage.
Not sure what more info you need.
Just another frustrating issue...
thanks :whistling:

Does this happen when you use a wired connection? Wireless is good for some things and gaming isn't one of them.

also if someone is download p2p files or using skype or maybe even using vonage then all that can cause issues as well. check your signal strength when it happens and see what it is. It may be as simple as making a better antenna for your wireless card.

However, cod2 doesn't like wireless connections. They introduce to much latency and cause the game to think it's getting connection interruptions.

Thanks.
It is wirelesss, and I do have Vonage.
I rebooted the cable modem and the routers last night and it actually worked for a while, but after about 15 minutes it pinged out at 999 again.
I am going to have to look into running a cable or find a new place to play..
thanks for your help
