Today, I just had comcast cable installed. I get 1.7mbps down 240kbps up (according to varying online connection tests)
There are 3 computer hooked up to one connection on a linksys router. 1 computer (my moms) uses almost no bandwidth, a little web surfing that it. On the other hand the other 2 computers (mine and my bro's) take up alot of bandwidth, playing games, downloading mp3's and videos....
So earlier my bro and I wanted to go play a game, we get to the server... and were pinging 10000+!!! WHAT? Sounds crazy right? Well... if I leave, or he leaves, the pings level out to 93 or so... on both computers. I dont get whats happening here, both computers can be soaking up speed... but ping 93, then in the same server they get 10000? Help!
