    Hey I have an inspiron 9300 with a intel pro wirelss 2200 card, and Im having problems with Battlefeild 2. First, I would have a ping of about 55 ms and still be getting lag and often a yellow message would appear saying "There is a problem with your connection." I figured it must be an outdated version of battlefeild 2 so i upgraded to the v.1.0.2 patch which...hasn't really done much but made things worse. I then try turning off my firewall. Now the lowest ping i get is 270-350! what did i do to make the pings get so high? I also downloaded limewire but i turn it off during gameplay. Does anyone know what made my pings get soo ****in high? Last night i was getting pings between 60-150ms now the lowest ping i get is 220-360! what did i do or what should i do to fix the problem?
