Lots Of Lag Spikes

For the last 3 days, i have been getting lots of lags spikes. I would click a place to go or a skill and then my character doesn't move for a few seconds and then i jump to the place i had clicked and a few seconds later, it happens again. It's really annoying after a while..It started about 3 days ago. Anyone else having this problem?

me too. this happened when i was doing the nolani acadamy mission: i dropped the tomb, and it disappeared for a good 2 minutes.

Yup. My connection is already kinda shoddy (crappy wireless signal), but lately it's been hard to even solo with henchies. :/

This is really weird but, i think it has something to do with us downloading maps from cantha for the update. Well i hope this gets fixed. It's really hard to be a monk while you are trying to win halls.....

I've also been having this problem for the past few days, I hope it's not a sign of things to come when Factions is released.

Ive been getting a lot of err 7's and even err 40's when trying to go to certain towns

I'm sure it will be fixed. I too have had this problem though. Perhapsits all the people still downloading things for the Factions preveiw. But I don't see why Anet wouldn't fix it when they can.

er, this is the reason why people in the 058 thread cant connect, there is a router that is nackered on out route to the guild wars servers, i expect this router is causing you guys problems too

try opening command prompt start>run>cmd

then type
tracert auth1.arenanetworks.com

and let that run (about 30 hops)

I can't even enter cantha because of lag. First i will freeze then i lag badly and then evrything turns white.
