Latency issues
Hello all, I havnt posted here in quite a long time ( I can figure out most of my computer issues myself ). But something has me concerned and I come here for advice.

Recently I have been having latency issues with my internet connection, I play quite a few online games (COD4, TF2, WoW) and have never had a problem before. My pings to most server is usually around 10-50, but lately I have been lagging out, getting 1-200 pings, or even up to 4000 playing warcraft.

I am looking for some software which can detect if someone is using my connection or intercepting it...sorry dont really know the verbage to use here...

I have looked at the stickys and I dont think what I am looking for is there.

Thank you in advance!

You say you want to see if someone is using your connection; are you on a wireless LAN ?

Yes I am on a wireless connection, I just want to know if anyone is using my connection. I am having some odd lag issues and my ISP is telling me they are having no problems. I am sure this question has been answered here somewhere, but I cant find it.

Some routers have the capability to see who is connected to it. Go to your router's web page to take a look.
