SLOW gaming with Netgear RT314

[VstyleZ]

Hello Everyone,

I've just recently purchased a Netgear RT314 and am sharing a RoadRunner connection between 2 computers. Everything works fine file transfers, connection sharing, etc. But I've recently encountered a problem, I've purchased 2 copies of the new Diablo 2 Expansion Game and when trying to play online with both computers everything slows to a crawl, when I ping the connections it read 400-500+ ... now if I turn off any one of the two computers and play with only one connection it will ping at between 50-80 ... I was wondering if I could possibly change some settings and if so how to change those settings to solve this issue.

Also I've not changed anything on the router at all, basicly unplugged the power cord from my Cable modem to reset it, than basicly plugged and played.

Any help would be appreciated, THANKS IN ADVANCE,

They have a new firmare for the RT314. Do a search on it .... I can not remember the thread but in all places I believe it was in the HOT DEALS forum.

So, all of you who got it for $49.9x - Rebates last week, your deal just got hotter. Now you gamers can add rules so you can forward ports in a range in a single line item. >>

VstyleZ You might want to read the thread for yourself; since members do talk somewhat about gaming and this update. BTW I am sure you can also PM them with your question.
