I have had this for a while now, everytime im in ventrilo i have 20 ping but say someone speakers, after a while i hear them, it comes up that they are talking in ventrilo but i don't hear them for a while, its random and sometimes, i had this problem on my old motherboard with gigabit ethernet but i now have a new motherboard same problem, i replaced ethernet cable, same problem and i use the wnr2000 netgear router didn't have this problem before with that router, i havn't upgraded firmware recently which have caused this problem either.
Now here are my signal levels in my modem, are they ok?
Downstream Levels:
Code:
Downstream Lock : Locked
Downstream Channel Id : 7
Downstream Frequency : 339000000 Hz
Downstream Modulation : QAM256
Downstream Symbol Rate : 5360.537 Ksym/sec
Downstream Interleave Depth : taps32Increment4
Downstream Receive Power Level : 8.1 dBmV
Downstream SNR : 40.3 dB
Upstream Levels:
Code:
Upstream Lock : Locked
Upstream Channel ID : 3
Upstream Frequency : 34000000 Hz
Upstream Modulation : QPSK
Upstream Symbol Rate : 2560 Ksym/sec
Upstream transmit Power Level : 34.5 dBmV
Upstream Mini-Slot Size : 2
Im confused on what it could be, here is the tracert for the ventrilo server:
Code:
Tracing route to vent16.gameservers.com [212.187.246.100]

Trace complete.
But i get this lag on other ventrilo servers too, also when i say go to play Counter-Strike Source or games which query servers as a list COD4 etc.. it seems to overload and i can't join a game until a while, or if i say exit a game i can't login to Windows Live Messenger it says error connecting to network but current connections stay alive ie already connected to steam / ventrilo and work fine.
Im confused and lost!
Iv'e never experienced anything like this before?
If you need anymore info let me know.
