Keep Getting Disconnected =(

[Azrael]

Just about everytime I zone, I get disconnected and kicked to the login screen. This has been happening way more than it should (as in EVERYTIME I zone). Also, my lag-o-meter keeps going really low into the reds and yellows acting like I'm about to get disconnected, but i never do, my character just lags. I'm pretty sure it could be do to my connection (56k ;( ), but i have a few friends that are also playing in my area with the same connection, that don't lag at all and play just fine.

My system specs are:
Windows XP: Pro
1023 MB DDR Ram
AMD 64 3400
GeForce FX 5950 Ultra
56K Modem

Do you have a router/firewall?

 

[Azrael]

Nope, I have my firewall turned off.

Is this still happening, and are you on a different ISP than your friends?

 

[Anonymous]

Yep, it still happens EVERYTIME I zone, and I am using the same ISP as two of them.

^That was me btw......but that was kinda obvious I guess.

 

[Foonie]

I must say, it sounds a lot like a router problem.

 

[Azrael]

How would I go about fixing that?

You can try this
If that doesn't work, try putting your computer in the DMZ zone and see if that fixes anything (though it should only be used to test if it works or not).[/url]
