Last week was spring break and I played all week (Xbox 360) with little to no lag. However, now that break is over, I'm getting lag like before break, making games almost unplayable.

I'm wondering when are the best times to play? I've sometimes stayed up late at night and on occasion managed to get a good connection while other times I did not. Any tips?

Probably late at night, after midnight. I was getting 1.2 megabits last week around 1AM.

Best Time to play online games are not during peak hours.

PEAK HOURS

7am-10am

11am-2pm

3pm-7pm

9pm-11pm

ANYTIME OUTSIDE THESE HOURS YOUR GOOD TO GO.

Weekends are worst all the kids are trying to do the same thing. Maybe after 11pm when they all go to bed

Call the company your using and just make sure you dont have a problem with some towers in your area. I had high ping problems till I called Sprint about the problem. I play my xbox360 all the time on my U720 with no lag problems during these peak times anymore after calling Sprint. Plus make sure your not on a computer downloading or surfing the internet at the same time your playing.
