Re: Any other gamers having REALLY bad ping last 2 days ?
I was having major ping/lag issues with BF2 from around Feb last year (was working fine up until then). It was driving me crazy, but what eventually seemed to fix it was changing a setting in Windows.

I changed the way Windows used Processor Scheduling from Programs to Background Services because I'd read that the Punk Buster update from about Feb '07 starts Punk Buster as a background service and that some people had issues.

It's been fine ever since. I've not put the option back to Programs since though, but it worked for me after trying lots of testing on my network and net connection.
