So where is the issue?  And is this the right address for the late war 1 arena?

First thing to try is hard reseting your cable modem (if thats what you have).

Unplug for 30 sec and replug.

Other than that, ***** to your ISP.

[dhaus]

Don't think it is the modem.  Just ran another tonight and got this:

Seems much better.

[Skuzzy]

Looks like the gateway between core.net and att.net is acting odd.

[dhaus]

Great, first my flying is odd, my marksmanship is worse and now the gateway between core.net and att.net is odd.   (Btw, what does the gateway being odd mean in terms of my addiction? )  Thanks for the response, skuzzy!

[Skuzzy]

Things like this are soemtimes self-healing.  It could be the ISP doing maintenance or some other like operation.

It could be a legitimate problem.  One they may, or may not, be aware of.  It is always best to assume they have no clue and send them the information showing the problem exists.

I haev already sent a report to AT&T about it.  I suggest you hit up your ISP from the other side as well.

[dhaus]

Thanks.  Will do, skuzzy.

[Wmaker]

Having an exact same problem...hope we'll be past it soon.

[dhaus]

Let me know how ya fix the odd flying and poor gunnery.  Skuzzy didn't give me any help there.

[Skuzzy]

And I definately not the one to ask about that.
