and have like a two second delay during play, does that mean it is a problem with lag on my computer or my internet connection?

I share internet with 4 people, one of them plays hon and he says he never lags

Like I usually get 60 ping on USW server but recently I've been getting 200-350 ping with 2 second delay and I'm trying to figure out if I have a virus or something

update network drivers

if your using wireless it could be a factor

USW tends to suck bad cause im from USE

always good to clean your computer up tho

9 times out of 10, it's never a virus unless you've done something horribly wrong with your computer which is unlikely.
Your connection could be to blame, or maybe there's a lack of bandwidth? Wireless of course is really terrible for gaming, but at least it has gotten better over the years.

I've been having the same problem with West servers, I'm normally fine, but in the past few days I've had such AWFUL connections that I've dc'd from 3 games. I just avoid West and seem to be fine.

I also use avira antivir/avg/avast antivirus

i dont go to any random sites that might have spyware/viruses but i do use sidereel sometimes to watch shows which has links to lots of adware stuff so that might be it I guess

edit: or another possibility is that my graphics card is messed up or something.. but idk, seems like I can't watch videos now on hulu without it skipping a few frames

theres a big thread about it on the hon forums, go to latency issues or something.

too lazy to link, so go find and follow the steps there, it can be anything from packet loss to firewall issues. I doubt it's your computer though if it has the reqs to play hon (unless virus ofc like posted earlier)
