Hi!

New member in the world of Guild Wars, bought the game yesterday

.
Ufortunetly the first thing I stumble upon as I enter the continent of Elonia, as a Dervish named Phol Lionheart is connection problems :/.
I seem to lag frequently, ping is everything from 77-2000 ms, mostly between the sad numbers 200-400. It's pretty hard to enjoy the game at this point, mobs and players sliding all over the place :/.

Worst of all I get disconnected from time to time, seems to have something do with entering a "european district" :s. Last night I got disconnected while entering a town while being in a european district, and after that I couldn't log on on THAT specific char. It would either load fully, kick me back to char selection screen and then give me a "Code:007" Error, or just not load at all, staying at 0%.
I've tried disabling windows firewall, shut down my anti-virus protection (AVG) and even connecting directly to the modem instead of through the router.
Even tried making a new char and connecting, which went fine, but on Phol I could not.

I'm so bummed at the moment, fps is great, graphics and music is great, gameplay is nasty annoying moo-crap with all the lag :/. I really want to play this without the constant lagging, I'll try anything if anyone has any idea what to do.

My ISP is Bahnhof 10/10Mbit broadband, I'm located in Sweden on my home network (2 computers through a router through a modem in the wall using ethernet-cables). I'm using the "Complete Collection" version of Guild Wars, and I don't have any problems with most other things network-related (downloading, streaming, playing other online games etc). Os of choice is Vista Ultimate 32bit.
Any help to get this game running like it should is HIGHLY appriciated :x.

Aye, I tried logging in yesterday and it was much better ^^, well as long as I stayed in the America districts that is :x. The European realms seems to still be a bit flunky, I had everything from like 35-60,000 ms:s.
No idea what's going on there, but at least I was able to play with about 200-340ms in the the other districts, which was fine mostly :].

Thanks for the support!
