Posted July 26, 200717 yr So I got a new wireless router modem or whatever it is, and it's still a direct input into the back of my computer but with wireless for the laptop I'm getting. No other computers are using the wireless but now when I try to connect to a counter strike source server, which worked earlier today on the old modem, I time out in a few seconds because of a ridiculously high ping. What the fuck is going on with this thing, can I troubleshoot it or what?

If I only join servers on my favorites it works fine. Still really annoying.
July 26, 200717 yr Author well the service was fine, then we picked up the wireless thing for free from our providers and didn't install it right away, had no internet, installed it, now i have shitty internet for gaming. ;495717']configure your IP QOS to assign more bandwidth to the wireless connection how would i go about doing that
July 26, 200717 yr Wireless router's are very peculiar. If you keep at it, you'll eventually find the settings that will give you comparable speeds (but not as fast as) hardwire. Try going into the firmware, depending on what type of router it is.
July 26, 200717 yr Author it's still got an ethernet cable going directly into my desktop so i don't understand the drop in performance...
