I have set up a wireless network and used to use teamspeak on the same 3mbit connection as i have now. Well, when I went wireless everything works great except for when I start teamspeak. Intensely, I studied the FAQ's, forums, and searched (found one relevant post, but it was never followed up on) to no end. Every time I start Teamspeak, I barely can load webpages, cannot play games (i get timed out), etc. What I found interesting is that while I was running teamspeak and trying to open a webpage i ran a traceroute to see why i was getting this lag. To my surprise, there was a good report. Many times I ran it and the first five hits were under 25ms to several sites (most averaged 7-9ms). This was all after I had shut off all security for the wireless network (only virus scanner was running). My next goal was to do an explorer software shut down and see how well I could text browse. Still, would hardly bring anything up. It seems that somehow, and I have not yet run a netstat while running teamspeak, the program is a) blocking port 80 (i can still access games and play with minimal lag even though I time out at times while ts is running) b) mishandling bandwidth to port 80 or other ports, c) or has a conflict with Microsoft's wireless connectivity software (I have not tested this on any other OS yet). The wireless network is an 802.11b. The network card is a DLINK DWL-520 and the router is a Linksys 802.11b router (model escapes me at the moment). The former router had the same problem. It was a DLINK 802.11b also. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
UPDATE: On the games, I have found I cannot connect to them while ts is on either so it doesnt seem to be isolated to port 80.
