Internet Problems Over network

Dropkickmurphys · 01-16-2006, 06:36 PM

hi, i have a bit of a problem i could use some help with.

i have 3 computers on a network, when me and my bro want to play cod2 on the net i always seem to get really bad lag, as in 999ping, but he always gets a really good connection.
i have a belkin router (cant remember model).

how can this be? shouldnt we get about the same ping as we are on the same server?
is there someway to sort out the problem, or do i just have to put up with it??
