Firewall issue, maybe?
Ok recently I have been playing an online game (World of warcraft) and every time I log on I can't even move I just start lagging to the point I have to just close the program. I talked to both the games techs and my wireless router's company about it. Both tell me that it could either be the router itself, but that cannot be because my roommate's computer is next to me running off the same router and he can play the game fine. This problem occured I belive about a week ago and I didn't relize it till monday.
I have tried turning off both my windows One live Care firewall and my basic vista firewall and nothing fixed the problem.
I have also tried putting in the games port directly into my firewall and that still didn't fix the issue.
Also I tried starting my computer only running the windows programs seeing if another program running in the background is causing the problem and it still didn't fix it.
If any one knows how to help me fix this that would help alot.
