Question : Problem: airport extreme lag problem
I recently replaced my netgear g router with an airport extreme base which is an N router. Basic web connects seemed to be working. I have 2 xp machines connected via ethernet and a macbook that I connect via wireless. The problem we have involves my son's warcraft game. This is just the basic battle game, not the world game. He plays for a few minutes, everything works and then the game locks him out, at which point he gets kicked out
The NetGear router had been having some issues and we were restarting it from time to time but it did not have this issue. It does seem to be solid. It has brought down all of my internet access at which point we kill the game, reboot the modem.
I thought that perhaps the 1gig ethernet ports on the router we're overloading his ethernet card which is a 10/100. So I connected him through a 10/100 switch as a test but I found we had the same exact symptom. I checked the games website and found other people had complained about this type of problem, but it looked like the posts were all over a year old.
Possible solutions?
I was thinking about switching back to the old router as a test. But I wanted to see if what I could find out here before I play around with it.
