I have been playing Halo 3 online since it was released. I have had no problems as far as connecting or lag or any of that. I have good internet speed and I have a Linksys WRT54G wireless router. Everything has worked perfect for months. However, recently... I'd say the past month or so I cannot get through a single halo 3 game online without ridiculous lag. When I check my signal on the scoreboard I almost always have one or two red dots. This started happening out to the blue. Nothing as far as my router or internet service has changed. And when my cousin uses the same xbox (different hard drive and account) to play COD4 online it works fine. But I cant get through a game of halo 3. I restarted the router and modem a bunch of times. I shut down every comp in the house also using the network and nothing helps. Any idea? Why would this happen all of the sudden when its worked fine for months? Thanks.

this happens all the time with someone I know(who happens to live in the Virgin Islands). He lags on Halo 3 but not anywhere else. It might be the servers messing with your connection.

so its possible then that its not just me. Like I said it has worked fine since last year and I play all the time. Then suddenly, like in the last month, I can barely get through a game. Im always in the red.
