Tuesday 7th July

After spending quality time with my family bowling I decided to check to see if the Internet connection was working and was pleasantly surprised, at 7:00 PM I sent 1000 ping packets to my works website (extremely reliable as I manage it) and lost just 2 packets, a 0.2% packet loss is something I can live with. I started playing Warhammer Online and everything appears OK except for a few occasions in scenarios where it lagged but that could have been just the game. At 08:30 during a skirmish battle between fellow guildies, randoms and Jenna's (really good player)army I started getting severe lag. I ran a ping test and was getting 15% packets loss, I persisted playing for a while to see if the problem would rectify itself which it didn't. I felt really bad about letting my colleagues down by not participating but it was pointless continuing to to play when for most part of the battle I would be a sitting duck. I apologized and everyone was very sympathetic to my problem and wished me luck tomorrow when I would battle with Virgin Media
