America's Army 3 came out with a new update on the weekend which now I cannot play because I lag so much.
I cleaned my hard drive up a bit and got a registry cleaner and a few other tools to help me.
Now I do tweak the game to get the best out of it and it has always worked in the past up until now.
But I have noticed my internet monitors always showing busy which has got me stumped to why.
Yes I do have 3 other computers hooked up to my modem but most of the TIME only 2 are going and it has never really interfered before.
I did manage to stop the busy signal yesterday when I cleaned registry but after a game or two it started again, so my game was running fine for a few rounds there.
I TRIED to do the registry thing again but it didn't work this time.
What could be wrong please help as I know my computer can handle this game and would like to get back to playing with my clan. And yes we are an australian clan and have australian servers. Server is NSW and I am in Perth WA. Your best bet is to leave registry cleaners alone...period.
If any machine much less 3 of them are CONNECTED then you are going to see network activity...

It could be ANYTHING from apps phoning home for updates to email checks etc....
I wouldn't worry about it...but i would worry about reg cleaning apps if i were you...I have had 2 computers hooked up before and it has never shown it, only now since moving I have hooked 2 more up but more for storage and sons laptop for school but her hardly uses it always on ps2. Just seems strange that it is all of a sudden.
And yer ok thx for heads up about reg cleaners.

Edit: When I unplug sons laptop from net it FIXES it so that means there is something wrong with his because it's off but in stand by mode and erthnet was still plugged in.
