A bit long thanks for reading 😀
About 3-4 weeks ago I started noticing some lag issues with surfing the web. Websites would all of a sudden take 20 seconds to load instead of 2-3. Usually webpages load instantly but the problem would be it would load partially like the header or 10% of the page, hang and not load anything for 10-15 seconds then load everything else fine. And web surfing would be fine after that. This would happen every now and again but I always chalked it up to random congestion.
I then started to notice it more in On-line Gaming as well. I'd be happily running along but then have a huge lag spike and not do anything for 10-15 seconds, and then when my "connection" came back I'd be dead. 😛
I have a Linksys WRT54GS with HyperWRT + thibor 13d installed. And have a Linksys wireless card. The combo has been fine for the past year or so. I tried plugging straight into the router, didn't have any problems, but the problem is so inconsistent I'm not sure plugging it straight in will make a difference. I can go days without any hiccups or have 4-5 hiccups in one house. I tried plugging straight into the DSL modem as well but with similiar results to plugging straight into the router. Is there anything I can do to diagnose the problem at the instant the lag occurs? Is there anything I can do to pinpoint the problem as the wirless card/router/modem/physical phone line?
