Well this is an odd one for ya...my internet works perfectly fine all day long without even the slightest problems. I can play Age of Conan (MMO) all day long without problems as well. Yet the odd parts come in when I attempt to play any of my 3 FPS (first person shooter) games.

--- Counterstrike: Source ---
--- Call of Duty 4 ---
Not sure if this is a common problem with Netgear Modems or not, but it is pretty frustrating. Any help is appreciated.

- Occasionally the Server-List will display only 1-2 servers, both with high pings.
- Ping is higher than before on all servers as well. Most are 100+ ping when they used to be around 25-40.
- Remedy is to reset the modem.

- All servers on the server-list have abnormally high ping. Even ones that on my old internet setup had about 40-ish ping are 200+.
- Can't connect to the majority of the servers.
- Sometimes it will connect to the server and as soon as I enter give me connection interrupted.
- Remedy is to reset the modem.

- Ping seems to be okay, though I didn't have the game with my old internet setup, so I have nothing to compare it with.
- Will connect to the server perfectly fine, but after about 10 minutes of gameplay I will get Connection Interrupted, the lights on my modem will all light up, and then half will shut off followed about 2 seconds later by the other half of the lights shutting off. The modem will then reset itself, reestablishing a connection in about 30 seconds.
- Remedy....none....
