Site slowness

I have a 60 mbps broadband connection, so if a specific site is noticably slow it is usually due to the site itself. MMORPG.com is one such site for me. Regardless of time of day, this site has significant lag for me in loading new pages, bringing up forum posts, generating game lists and so forth. I realize this can sometimes be caused by other issues such as backbone routers clogging, etc....but it's pretty consistent. Is it time for a hardware upgrade, sysops? Reindex the DB? I dunno, but I do enjoy the site and this is becoming a genuine p.i.t.a lately. Thanks for reading.

Hi there,
Please contact our Support team so we may look into this matter further. Thanks!
Everything worked fine for me until I switched from wireless network card to USB. Now I wished I never gave my brother my old card.
If you can, try using tracert www.mmorpg.com to detect whether youre having issues with actually contacting the servers and that should show if youre having problems wit hthe routing to the site.
To use this, go to start -> run then type "cmd"
If you are using Win 7, just go to the logo menu thingy and type "cmd" and you should see an icon appear. Just right click it and run it as an administrator
When it opens, just type
tracert www.mmorpg.com
If you see any 3 or 4 digit ms measures, then you can blame whatever server that is for your slowness o.o
Edit :
yo ucant really blame the site because its running perfectly fine for me from the house, school, and iphone in various areas o.o If anything, it will be your actual connection or routing to the site, dns, or your browser o.o

You guys tried a different browser? For some reason does the site load faster in Opera for me than Firefox.
Not a great idea. There are a lot of things that works great on USB, I even have a USB soundcard. But avoid networking cards and if possible harddrives (use the external SATA port instead, it is a lot faster).
Is mmorpg.com primarily hosted on the east coast? Because it is a lot of hops for me from Cali.

I doubt it's a resolution issue, that would tend to affect multiple sites right? My WAN interface times out but I think that's normal, happens with all sites. There is one of my ISP's backbone router that goes above 200ms in MO, which is why I asked about location.
