Easy done pal, I was in the same situation last night, but with regards to MW2 Bring it on succa

The work was started on the 12th but the fault ticket is on 3 cabs, not just mine and apparently Ive been saved till last, Im told work should be started on it tomorrow so I'll hopefully be able to join you on MW2 over the weekend and laugh at your lag as you bounce round the screen

There obviously saving the best till last lol, and fingers crossed it nails the problem this time.

I noticed an improvement last night but its still not 100%, and you wont be laughing when I shank you from 50 feet away, lag works both ways

pabs have you tried running pingplotter so you can show him how bad it is? Id run a pathping and it would seem ok but running pingplotter i could see it spiking to 1700ms pings

Ive done pathpings before but never pingplotter, if we hook up at some point over the weekend you could possibly talk me through as I,m a bit of a nube when it comes I.T.

Everyday I run downstairs like a kid on christmas morning to check my router to see if the nasty codewords have gone and if they have been working away through the night to fix it
Ive done similar things in the past, the first thing I did this morning was to check my logs, and since the scheduled maintenance yesterday there has been far fewer T3's and much fewer correctables. Ive been told to see how it goes over the weekend and then get back to the CEO guy on Monday.

Ive also noticed my config file has changed, so maybe there was some update...... who knows.

Has anyone else noticed their config file has changed ?
