for the past 2 weeks my internet has been intermittantly cutting off when I'm playing. I've gotten timed out with big hands like top 2 on the river in a $500 pot. I can't play a decent session because I get so frustrated being timed out so much. I play 8 tables but I've played 2 before and I still get disconnected
the weird thing is web pages are loading fine, and I'm now using my roommate's connection (it's school internet) which is still giving me problems. I've connected straight to the wall and through my router. this is all leading me to think that there's something going on with my computer. the only programs I run when I play are poker tracker and my HUD
I have norton anti-virus, pestpatrol, and ad-aware and use them. I have no firewall though
should I reformat? should I buy a firewall? it really sucks not being able to play
