Hey DP Yeah this issue doesn't always happen to everyone all the time but it is definitely an issue with the route to the SE server. Use this http://www.pingplotter.com/ and download ping plotter. Then enter 199.91.189.57 in the bar in the upper right hand corner when you start the program. That is the IP address for Hyperion. change the interval to a smaller number and increase how many data points are on the plot. Then just sit back and watch the route your computer takes to get to the SE servers in Montreal. It will show you if there is packet loss along the way and at which node it happens at. This is a problem effecting a lot of people. SE is still twiddling their thumbs in their butt holes on this problem. But most people have an issue with Level3 nodes on the way to the server and the server itself. SE has to call for the gamers and get level3 and the other people in the area to fix the issue. Level3 will not talk to consumers of other ISP's so there is really nothing we can do about it. The first 3-4 jumps will be your local region ISP if there is no issues in that region then there is nothing you can do to fix the issue yourself. Best regards and see you online in the LS
