Netgraph Spikes Red side only.

What would cause netgraph spikes on the red sie only? My friends and I switched to redside and everyone noticed lag. So I opened up my netgraph and my fps and my fps is staying at 60+ but netgraph shows an occasional yellow spike. When the spike shows I've noticed that my powers are not going off as I click them.

Anyone have any ideas? It's only on red side though, not blue. We are on Justice for blue side and Infinity for red, if that makes a difference. Also we are all over the country, some in WA, TX, CO and AR. Oh and I'm on a brand new system with basically only COh installed - i7 860, gtx 275, 8gb ram, hardwired to the modem not wireless... though it is a wireless gateway for the rest of the house.

Infinity is an East Coast server, while Justice is a West Coast server, so it can make a difference, and that's likely the cause. You could run a trace route and ping to the east/west servers and see if you notice anything difference (especially dropped packets, or troublesome hops), see the addresses here on Paragonwiki.

Will try that Kitsune! Thanks! Though if I find something I don't know what I could do about it. I don't think I could convince my friends to transfer all our toons to a closer server... unless a freebie month comes up again. That's where we ended up on the last one.

Actually I've been seeing skill lag issues on infinity for a couple of weeks now, both red and blueside. It happens mostly in instances, but can occasionally happen outdoors too. I've seen quite a few people mention it when I get on a team with my infinity alts, but I'm not sure if NCsoft is looking into it or if they just assume it's a client ISP issue that will go away eventually.

If it's happening for pretty much everyone on Infinity, then it's unlikely to be an ISP issue (for either NC or the users), as Infinity would be sharing the same uplink ISP as the other servers on the same coast, so it wouldn't be [I]Infinity[/ I] but half the shards.
