We've been having a strange problem over the past week or so. I'll be playing and suddenly lose the ability to interact with the game. I cannot pick up items, attack enemies, open a trade window, talk to NPC's, if I attempt to use a skill the skill just continues to flash as if it was being cast indefinitely. This happens suddenly after anywhere from 5 minutes to several hours of playing normally.

My boyfriend and I play togather using a router, and when this happens although I still have the ability to move around on my screen, on his screen I am standing still. The reconnect anet put in (which is usually great btw) hasn't worked once for this issue as the game never actually kicks me. We have tried disconnecting the router and still no dice, and the other computer on the router hasn't experienced this problem.

Anyone else experience anything like this?

You are getting errors/disconnects from the game it sounds like.

Some questions:

Has anything configuration-wise changed during the last week or so since you started having the problem? <router setup change, firmware update, TCP/IP changes, driver updates, etc.>

Does it only occur when both of you are playing at the same time?

Is it a wireless router?

What make/model is the router?

Does resetting/restarting the router help?
