    No you're not the only one. Usually my ping is 167, but the last few days it's 305. Amazon unstable?

    I already sent a mail to support about this, a couple of days ago. A lot of my friends have been saying the same and I had more lag lately than I ever had before. Something seems up indeed.

    Btw, I got a response back that they didn't have any serious latency problems. I guess, this is a good topic to see if it only affects certain individuals or if it's a more widespread 'problem'.


    And for all doubters of my rockstar status:

    Lag was really bad last night. I had to quit 3 or 4 runs because my ping climbed to over 50k.

    I'm in California and lag has been really bad for almost a week now. It tends to hover around 400 and then spike up into the thousands then jump back down to 350 or 400. A few times it's been down to like 200 but that's now a rarity rather than a norm.

    One thing that I found helped keep my ping down when it seemed to be running higher....if you are playing on WiFi, like at home or at Starbucks or wherever, disable your 3G. For some reason having both 3G and WiFi running would cause my ping (which is on wifi normally 100-180) to jump into the 300-450 range. But when I would disable 3G it would drop back down into the 100-180 range and run smooth as buttah.

    This is a wifi solution only, but hopefully might help someone a little.

    I don't have issues when I'm on my home wifi (FIOS) but that changes when I use my 3G connection.

    I play with 400 average. Lately I've been getting constant 30k spikes.

    I would say my average for awhile was in the 200s. Then I got tons of lag spikes, to where if I was still in a group, I'd say the host was being super nice because if I did not get disconnected, I'd come back to where he was telling me to come join them :P

    So I upgraded my iOS on two iPads. It helped a little but I still had lag spikes. Only now it wasn't constant. Just occasionally.

    We have two separate WiFi networks here, one DSL and one cable. The cable one was actually worse.

    Then my brother told me about the new WiFi network he set up -- I think it's cable also but at a faster speed. Not sure all the details yet, but I played it the day before yesterday (did not have time to go into PL yesterday) and there was no lag at all. So... depending on whether it's really our WiFi setup... we might be getting new equipment or new services or both or discontinuing old ones.

    Not done testing yet, so I have no idea whether I still have lag. Should have time today to go in game, so I'll see.

    Yes, what causes this? I've noticed that a bit. I'll be playing and look at ping, expecting it to be at about 1000 but it's still about 200.
