Low ping play, DC icon appears and loses total control of hero.

[HahaYouDied]

I tried to post in this (http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/showthread.php?t=196914) thread but wasn't able to.

Im experiencing the same thing as I have played HoN for around a year now, never experiencing anything like this, Strange thing is this only happens when I play Team Matchmaking (and maybe solo as well but haven't tried).

At times its fine and I can play normally but then the DC icon pops up and i suddenly cannot control my hero for a period of time.

I narrow my selections to USW servers as those are the servers I experience least lag with. But this has happened on a USE server.

My connection is wired to the modem if that matters.

Log of the trace / ping bounce.

That's odd. Matchmaking merely arranges matches, and server side should be the same. I'll ask to see if anybody knows what might be causing this.

Thanks.

Update: This has been happening much less frequently now (rarely at max and only for 1-2 seconds in a whole game) im on content.

This is only a general statement because I have only played few matchmaking games since the glitch because I do not want to risk getting kicked because people thought i was "afk"

In pub games this would never happen, the only exception was on a No stat Same hero mid iPGN aus server (which is actually closer to me considering im in new zealand).

Just an update on the situation but right now im pretty happy with what i have.

One possibility is that the region settings may be pulling in US Central servers to the list (It used to be a distinct region early closed beta and I'm not sure how it was merged).
