For a couple of weeks now I've been having progressively worstening lag in general at the start of and interlock round, worst if that interlock is caused by an ability usually making me lag out for about 20 seconds. This at first I thought was caused by the wireless connection to the router as I've had problems with the wireless which have been getting worst over the past week causing my connection to MxO and other online games to just time out.
Recently I installed a wire which now means I'm in direct link to the server now while the complete timeout issue has disappeared and I'm no longer being disconnected from the router I still have this problem whereby I lag out at the start of interlock usually finding myself dead by the time I get my connection back.
Here is my IP config and tracert.
