Crazy Lag Spikes
Ok, I don't I know what is wrong with my computer or internet. I know that my computer is over qualified to run this game.

Everytime I play Cross Fire I get these horrible ping spikes. I lived down here in Miami, Florida. My ping naturally for the Miami server is 30-50s and for the other servers 60-80s before I got this new computer. Now I'm running on Windows 7 and the specs above and I get 60-80-100-250-350 in a short amount of time. Then the process will repeat itself. I've searched the past threads above and they seem to have no help. Could it be my Internet or Windows 7. So Im asking now to see if I missed the solution or if anyone have any tips to help me.

Just a quick question.
Do you play via a wireless connection, with an ethernet cable to a router or USB broadband modem?
If you use a wireless connection, connection spikes may occur due to various issues, such as signal strength and sudden interference caused by other electrical devices.
Also, I found an interesting article regarding Windows 7 internet connection slowdown. There is a guide on how you may be able to increase the speed depending on whether your router supports something called ECN (There is also a link to a microsoft page to diagnose this)
