Hello again.

I am still having severe ping spikes with Battlefield 2. Sometimes I cannot get into a server before getting "Your connection was lost" message. A typical ping was 35-50. Then after 15 seconds, I get a hugh spike (>1000!) and get disconnected. I have tried turning off the antivirus stuff but that never had a problem before. My Windows firewall is set to allow the BF2 game through. I am not sure about the router's firewall. It is a Linksys WRT54GS. I have the computer hardlined to the router.

My IE problems have gone away and my internet is running smooth. The only problems lies with the game. I ran lagmeter and it indicated the "client" was the highest source of lag. I think that was my computer. The other two choices were network and server.

I have been scouring the forums for any guidance. I am close to a complete harddrive reformat but I thought I might try a few other options. Any help is appreciated.
