Anyone else been lagging lately?

I usually experience around 200-300 ping when playing on Justice, even if my girlfriend and I are both sharing the connection to the router which is in the other room. As of late, though, for roughly the past week, I've been experiencing lag spikes of anywhere between 900-1000 ping up into the 5500-6000 range, even when I'm the only person active on the connection and fairly late at night. As far as I know, all of the hardware at the house is still in good condition.

Is anyone ELSE lagging like crazy on Justice as of late? I'm east coast US, but I've never had this kind of trouble before. Could it have anything to do with the fact that my mom is on Facebook playing various games often while I'm trying to play COH?

I know all this is REALLY vague, but I'm no computer man. I'm just looking to see if anyone else is experiencing similar stuff.

Thanks.

My framerate ahs been significantly slowed as of late. ive noticed this in may be the past week or so. I almost never experience these problems during ship raids, or hami raids... but recently, its been noticeable even soloing.

Hey Tubbius, I've noticed it in the last few weeks too. It doesn't matter if I'm alone in a zone, which I have been a lot lately, or taking part in a ship raid, I just get weird lag spikes. The reason they're weird is that they don't always happen but when they do happen they seem to happen on a bizarrely regular schedule. Like every five minutes my game just turns into a slide show for a 60-90 seconds (I'm not actually timing anything but the intervals are that regular). There's no way it's my bandwidth, I have insanely fast internet here. I'd begun to think it was one of the recent Windows updates but after uninstalling all of them, there was no difference. I've reinstalled them and have updated all my drivers and still the problem happens. Not every day but frequently enough.

I'm buying a new system in the next month or so and I'm really hoping that puts an end to it.
