I have a problem with the ping, or lag. It was doing fine without any problems until just a couple of days ago, and now I can't hardly play online multiplayer at all. I don't have problems in campain mode. Ran all my spyware/adware/anti-virus scans, came up with just the basic stuff (cookies, ect.) I have a Dell Inspirion 8600, NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5200 video card, Intel Pentium M processor at 1.60GHz, 1GB Ram, and 40GB free of 55GB total Hard Drive Space. I have high-speed wireless internet, running at 3 Meg.

I thought I had plenty to run everything, but just all of a sudden, it started lagging real, real bad. In fact, bad enough to be asked to exit from multiplayer online play by others. Any ideas on what has caused this, or advice for me. I haven't changed any of my settings, or downloaded anything new to cause this. Thanks!

one main reason might be the wireless but go on dedicated servers only if it is bothering you that much

did you get a P2P program? Those really screw up multiplayer.

It prob your wireless adapter going south. I'm on my third one right now the others lasted 4 and 8 months. Lag would get progressively worse and when I replaced the adapter, viola, solid connection very little lag.
