    Help: find out reason for bandwidth drop...

    I have a 512Kbps wireless connection (with a 54Mbps wireless router), and usually get 60-110 ping on US servers. Lately, I have been getting 120-200 ping which REALLY causes trouble when doing anything in BF2.

    A couple weeks ago I used this speed test, and it gave back 480Kbps.
    Now, when I run it, it gives 340.9Kbps.

    I know for sure nobody else is connected to my wireless network because there isn't anybody else in range of it.

    How can I find out why it's dropped? If you need any more info, just ask. I don't know what you would need to figure this out.

      I have a 1.5 Mb wireless internet and my bandwith is allways drop'n off. Its not my ISP though, because of were I live all of my traffic is routed through Dallas TX and the nodes there are constantly hosed. I check this use'n a online trace route utility found here





      Here you see I have good pings eccept 1 node in Dallas that spikes near 100.
