I have a problem with disconnects in the game. I get to play for several hours...and then it disconnects me...my internet catches back up right away so I can log right back on...but about 10 seconds later it disconnects me again. Ventrilo also disconnects me during this time...but things like AIM and MSN do not seem to disconnect. This seems to only be a problem with Spiral Knights. Yesterday I was having the dc issue for about 20 mins since I logged right back on and got dc'd several seconds in for about 30 attempts. Once I close Spiral Knights...ventrilo does not dc me anymore and everything seems fine. After having that dc issue, I logged onto WoW and played for hours with an issue. Later on I played Spiral Knights again for several hours without issue.
However today, I played for several hours and now when I log in I get dc'd several seconds in again. Ventrilo is again having the same issue. But I close Spiral Knights and ventrilo does not dc me anymore. Seems like Spiral Knights is somehow disconnecting my whole internet for a split second. Also my brother was on our wireless and when I lost connection so did he. Like I said before it only seems to disconnect the internet for a split second...but it's enough to log off the game and dc ventrilo. Not really sure what could be causing the issue.
I read about some router problem with the WRT54G router...however I have a Linksys BEFW11S4 router. I will try to play directly from my modem and see if that helps.
Anyone have an idea of what could be causing it. Haven't been able to verify if it happens if my router is unhooked...however it is a different model than the one people seem to have problems with.
