[Help Me] DIR-655 and Battlefield 2

Hello,

I have a pretty new computer(built it about 3 months ago) with an i7 920, Radeon HD4870X2, and 12GB of ddr3 RAM running Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit. I just installed Battlefield 2 and when I play singleplayer everything works great. Nice and smooth and looks great for a 4 year old game. When I go to multiplayer I get stuttering every 5 seconds or so which makes the game virtually unplayable. If I connect my computer directly to my cable modem multiplayer works fine. I'd have to say I've reasoned it down to my Dlink DIR-655 router because I only have these issues when I am plugged into it.

So far I have restored the factory defaults of the router, upgraded the firmware from v1.11 to 1.31(latest as of this writing) and tried turning various services on/off(uPnp, QoS, SPI, etc) one at a time to see if there was any change. I also have all the appropriate ports forwarded to my static IP.

Does anyone have any idea what this router is doing to my Battlefield 2 performance? I can't help but think there is an option somewhere I can turn on or off to make it work right, since in every other way this router is FAST.

Thanks for any help,
Chris

Sorry to hijack your thread. But how do you have port forwarding setup on you router for BF2? I couldn't get it to work for me.

When I was using the DI-634M, it was pretty straight forward to setup. Maybe a screen shot of your setting?

 Sorry, I won't post a screenshot of my router settings, but on the DIR-655 you just have to click Advanced, then Port Forwarding. Then enter the appropriate tcp/udp ports and put in your static IP address. Pretty much the same as any other router I've tried.
