Tbh I didn't think DNS had anything to do with the type of direct server connection used for online gaming... I thought it was only relevant for viewing web pages on named domains. I had one time when my DNS was completely broken and I couldn't view webpages, but I could still game online on Steam with no problems.
@EzyHawk So I tried all the changes you recommended... I thought it had worked cos last night and this afternoon I didn't seem to be getting any stuttering. However this even the problem has started again... constant stuttering and freezing, and when is really bad am getting prediction error sign in top right. I have no idea what to do now.
@EzyHawk Actually the DNS was the one thing I didn't change the first time... I only tried that this evening after cleaning the cache didn't fix the problem. I'll have to reset the router completely tomorrow I guess... my ISP won't do anything, especially as I can't exactly identify what the problem is. I'll have to see if there is some way I can monitor the data transfer between my PC and the server to see if ping is spiking or getting packet loss or something.
