Trading House Ping

I've been using a mobile broadband connection (with a very weak signal) to play the last couple weeks and while it works pretty well most of the time I have discovered a couple issues. I doubt there are any fixes or workarounds but I thought I'd ask anyway.

While my ping isn't great, it usually stays between 500-800 which is plenty playable for CoH. I've found though that if I'm in a mission with a Mastermind's pets that my ping will start to climb very quickly into the thousands if they're nearby. While annoying, I can work around this by either not grouping with Masterminds or trying to keep some distance during missions.

The issue I discovered last night and that I consider much more frustrating is that when I open the trading interface (have tried in the Trading House in Imperial City and the Resistance Hub so far) my ping immediately skyrockets (like upwards of 10,000) and I start dropping packets like crazy. Maybe this has something to do with the way power suppression works? More likely it's something inherent to the way the trading interface functions. Has anybody else experienced this?

If anybody has any suggestions for working around this I would appreciate it.

Nobody has any idea why interacting with the trade interface nukes my ping and disconnects me from the mapserver?

Back before I got my new computer, which is about 5x better than the one I had before, if I played for more than an hour before hitting up the Market on either side, I would lag out and dc.

The only option was to log out and restart the game before going into the Market interface. This may help you.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I've already tried going to the market immediately after logging in and it doesn't make any difference for me.

This is a real bummer. I'm no big market player or anything but I enjoy using the market and the invention system. Not even being able to buy salvage puts a big crimp in my fun.
