Anytime I do anything useful, it fails. I connect to XBL via the ethernet port on my laptop and it is extremely unreliable. It really does make me want to cry.

This would be funny if my team wasn't on the last mission of a raid right now.

Wireless is horrible to deal with sometimes. I've been sick in bed all day and just when my show on Joost got good, the wireless went out. It was stellar, forealz. Jacob - That really is ironic. It made me laugh a lot, but I am sorry about your servers - hopefully your team can complete the mission without anymore issues! Brittany - That’s terrible!

As much as getting disconnected isn't my fault (aside from when I accidentally kick a wire or something), it makes me feel so guilty when I lag out or something. But I must say, I personally love ending games as a host in COD4 when I'm really laggy only because all the 14 year-olds start screaming OH YOU PUSSY I WAS GONNA KICK YOUR ASS!!!

Once kicked from the party, you couldn't rejoin. Sickener. Ahhh, I could have been a 3 hour Fonewearl, but had to make do with a sub 3 hour 30 time instead. Bleh.

I threw some stuff, like my mouse. I have the worst online gaming setup with my wireless. Its fast, but the connection isnt stable. I cannot tell you how many pyros have killed me because I was making out with the wall for 10 sec :( I got D/C today in Team Fortress 2 when i was like 20 sec away from reuturning the intelligence to win a game that was at least 2 hours long.

I would play WoW, and end up d/c and running around the world when nothing else was moving. SO frustrating. Usually right when you were about to complete some quest too. I wish people would figure out a way to make wireless more stable!

Demo - That's sad :( You're just a lovely sitting duck in that situation. Keira - I can't play WoW at all at my university. There's actually been posts on the Blizz techncial forums about UC. Totally infuriating! Vlad - PSO was definitely mean regarding that!

UC's entire network, wireless or otherwise, has issues for WoW. I even put the client on my work machine just to try it out (YES, I was on lunch break). I could play Hellgate, RO, DOMO, etc. In essence, all the ones I didn't actually feel like playing at the time. I suspect UCit just doesn't want the dormers sucking resources playing WoW all day instead of studying. Hah! Oh shut up!

So about 20 seconds ago I was owning as Sniper, and somehow my foot under my desk hit the on/off switch to my power strip, which my router is on.:( "You have been D/C" At least my computer wasn't plugged into that one. I'm thinking about getting my 50 foot CAT 5 and seeing if I can just lead it all the way directly to our other router, I despise wireless. OMG i got a new one.

You're definitely lucky it wasn't your PC power cable. My boyfriend's dog used to pull the plug on the router constantly. Eventually it shorted the thing out and we needed to buy a new one. :\ Demo - That’s pretty bad! You’re definitely lucky it wasn’t your PC power cable.
