now I've sent them an e-mail about this before and they gave me some explanation about internet blips and contacting my server. what happens is my game stops working. can;t talk to anyone, real or npc. can not go in buildings, dungeons or doors, can;t teleport and all the monsters start walking off the path and disappearing completely. now if it were just i lost my Internet for a second and I'm sort of in character in limbo, then logging off and on again should fix this right up. it doesn't. I'll log off an don at least forty times. some times i have to walk away and not play for twenty minuets, then log in and out twenty times to fix this. its' frustrating. especially when i have to redo dungeon six or seven times do to this or when it finally does correct itself,it decides I've been in a battle for the last twenty minuets and i get killed as of a result of it. i understand sometimes the Internet does blip out. i don't understand why the game can't correct itself after you've logged out and logged back in forty times. if it helps i have a windows seven laptop, wifi, with an intel pentium processor and this happens most frequently around 3-6 when the children get out school, although its happened as early 12. it also never happens at my finance's house(he's got a land line, but also windows seven.) any suggestions or fixes would be appreciated

Perform a virus check on your computer then do a power cycle ( this means shutting of the computer and waiting for it to completely shut off ) and wait about 10 minutes then start your computer back up. There isnt much to prevent this glitch but it rarely happens.

Sounds as if your internet provider over sold their bandwidth.

This happened to me when I had satellite internet. I would be fine all day until late afternoon and early evening. After changing internet providers, I no longer had the problem.
