RE: Vista Wireless Lag Spikes Using D-Link

Well finally I managed to get rid off the lag spikes!

When using (perhaps then older) wireless devices in Vista you might encounter with the "vista 60 second lag problem" (just google it and see).

Getting the right drivers for the wireless dwl-g122 usb device:

I have the DI-524 router and the DWL-G122 usb adapter as I mentioned earlier. The DI-524 Works well while the usb adapter wasn't working so good becose of the lag spikes, I thought. I didn't install the dwl-g122 driver from the cd that I got when I purchased the wireless G kit. I have the rev. C1 and installed the 3.10 driver http://www.dlink.co.uk/?go=jN7uAYLx/oIJaWVTALoZU93ygJVYKuJQSNvhLPG3yV3oUop7hqltbNlwaaRp7D06VHqqnHtB85pJVJ23gKftOQ5A8ruEaoqgXYP+pmsMmdsPTbhHNpbFqQfX/iaAcpXefr8r/Ep//JlQumBFJN2pnGn2which is for XP ServicePack3, but it worked on Vista; the setup went slowly but it worked. That will eliminate the wlanapi.dll error and those 2 other error using the older driver on vista. That's was for the driver software. Now the next step:

Getting rid of the lag spikes:

You might wanna try check ur ping. Click START > type cmd in the search box then ENTER
In command prompt, type ping –t <IP>. The ping might go up to 1000ms and more on a intervall of approx. 60 secs. Then the following could help!

U will need the "Vista lag control" program, with that run the auto off.bat with administrator rights, a msdosbox will show upp, just hit any key. Next step u need "vista anti-lag" -program or the "wlan optimizer" .program, your choice. Run the program, (don't close it while u play online) Try again typing ping -t <IP> in the command promt to see the ping. U should have lagless internet gaming! Worked for me, there are more ways too. Check the additional help.

Hi, i get constant lag spikes with my wireless internet every 30-90 seconds where my ping goes from 1ms up to 3000ms, this makes online gaming almost impossible or very stressful please help. I think this is a well known problem, ive been searching on the internet for a remedy regarding this problem for some time now but i have yet to find any, ive tried the Vista Anti Lag program and the WLAN Optimizer but neither of them are working for me. I am currently using a D-Link Di-524 Wireless Router and a D-Link WUA-1340 Wireless adapter on my desktop. If anyone out there knows what i should do please reply thanks alot, and if you need more info about my computer or anything to help fix the problem just let me know thank you =D.
