ok guys here's the deal,which i'm totally clueless..
i have a dsl connection and since yesterday all my ping times are like 3+ secs,so i did a trace rout and more often than not it didn't even reach the gateway of my isp!!! and when i ran the line check from my router(prolink hurricane 9200) it didn't show any problem with the line,so i ended up calling my isp's help line and they changed the ports or whatever and it was fine for a while,but i faced the same problem again 3000ms+ pings to my isp's gateway:eek: so anyways urgh too much useless info on that lolll....

one weird thing is that everything works fine for about few minutes after resarting the pc or the router and then it plunges down to the same insanely slow pings:(
can someone help mefigure out whats going on pls im clueless
