Someone else started a similar thread, but i'm just kinda wanting to get a general consensus--are other people experiencing an increase in lag as of late? It was fine when i 1st started playing, but now once every 2 or 3 floors i experience a HUGE stall of about 5-15 seconds where even the music stops and i just have to sit and wait and see if i'm gonna be dead or not when it starts running again.
Others experiencing increasing lag?

I get more and more lag each
I get more and more lag each update, and today was horrible, I left because my connection had been red for a good 30 minutes and I kept dying, I had no problem with anything else internet related, just with the connection with the SK server.

me too
I don't have lag with other internet activities just SK. In fact, on most games (xbl/sc2) i'm always been the guy with the good internet/computer.

Also, my localized bandwidth
Also, my localized bandwidth hogs get slapped with some restrictive QoS if they start interrupting other people's ability to use the internet. Doing that I can guarantee a lag-free experience on my local network.

I have a lot of trouble, but
I have a lot of trouble, but I don't know how much of it is lag and how much is poor performance. The network indicator is often two bars. When I load into a gate with a full group, I always get 10 or 20 seconds of choppiness before the game is playable, 30-40 fps after that. Periodically the screen will freeze for a second while I'm fighting, often causing me to run into dangerous mobs or spikes. It does this in the middle of pitched fights, when my computer's performance should at least be stable.
I tried opening the game's ports on my router, but that made no difference. I haven't had a ping over 50 in an online game for like ten years.
Nope, every case of lag I see these days is usually on my end, caused by another person in my building.
