My problem: Ever since my brother decided to be a smart ass and bring my laptop from my room down to the living room, any hl2, or source game, laggs like hell for me. I use AT&T with DSL, and it used to work flawlessly before he brought it downstairs. Just yesterday I brought it back up, connected my modem back in my room and plugged it to the laptop again, and it's taking forever for me to pull up my favorite list on CS:S, or any HL2. game. Also, once I get ingame, I lag-spike every 2 seconds, so playing is impossible. I checked the obvious reasons, i.e. cables, restarted router, rebooted computer, and so forth. tl;dr, laptop was plugged in to the internet via ethernet to a DSL modem, got brought downstairs with the modem, got brought back upstairs and now any Source game is being a bitch to me. Help me out, get rewarded. Link to comment

If it is for every source game, try updating your drivers for wireless/lan. PS: If it works, I don't want the reward, I'd have helped even if you didn't gave a reward. Link to comment
