From: Karolina Heslop Hi From some time, maybe three - four days sl downloading very slow. In game are biiiiiiiiig lags. I can to see what i type in chat window after more than 1 minute.

Before this hour all is ok. Your connection might be 4-5MB/sec on the last mile, but when connecting to another site outside your ISP's network, your connection is only as fast as the slowest connection between you and the site you're connecting to. Try turning down your network bandwidth setting until your sim pings come down to something approaching usable for you, if possible (things will take longer to rez, but at least you'll be able to move and keep up with conversation). Given that you're not even on the same first life continent as the SL grid, and connections between North America and your part of the world tend to be relatively low bandwidth and highly trafficked, fixing this problem in the long term may involve a transatlantic emigration...

I'd sooner suggest you try another sim first or look at your local ISP. I was able to connect just fine in both Viet Nam and South Korea using various services such as residential ADSL and hotel WiFi. (^_^) That said... Lag is pretty common... SL is a heavy load where all the content has to migrate from the servers. The 1.21.xx client doesn't help all that much either. There does seem to be an increase in CPU load coming from the client and while sculpties have started loading faster, textures practically 2 to 3 times longer to come in. (>_<  I wonder... What did I prefer more? Fancy textured spheres? Or... Gray sculpties? (=_=)y
