when im in game its running fine but to my friends im always logging on and off does anybody have any clue to wat is going on

If you are still having problems:

*Always* run a tracert. Find out which hops you are taking and where the lag starts.
*Always* use the nettest tool to check if you are able to connect properly.
*Always* add from where you are playing (I don't need your address, but we do need to know where in the world you are and what your internet service provider is)

Tracert patchserver.crypticstudios.com to check your routing.

You can run tracerts from a windows prompt or through online tools; select that which works best for you.

Nettest:
Go to files.champions-online.com/nettest.exe
Download this file and run it
A command prompt should appear running the test automatically
Copy and paste the results to the forum

Good nettest results have column 1 and 3 with values between 300- 500kb/sec, column 2 with 20kb/sec . Values lower than this indicate some sort of network problem between your computer and the game servers. Problems can include port blocking, port filtering, trafic throttling, or ISP issues.

thx for the reply

This has nothing to do with your connection,it's a known bug that has been around since Season 4 hit Tribble......they just didn't fix it.

ah cool cheers
