For these couple of days, I am having trouble playing battlenet. Everytime
I get connected to my ISP and enter diablo, I would either be disconnected
from the isp or diablo would hang. This happened before the patch was
implemented, but yesterday after many unsuccessful downloading of the
upgrade, and finally installing the patch, It was still the same. 

This is getting frustrating, as most of my time is spent on waiting on the
loading of the game and not playing. Yesterday I was in front of the PC for
2 hours and did not even had the chance to play diablo at all, the most i
got was to enter in to the diablo (irc) channels. 

First of all, my isp is not having troubles with their server as I have
tried other isps and to no avail. Secondly, i am computer literate,and know
how to configure the settings and max speed. Thirdly, the diablo i am using
is a original version.

Anybody know what is the problem?
Please, I luv this game and don't want to stop now.
Will appreciate any suggestion.

Well lag on bnet was in general higher over the first few days after
the patch was issued since everybody had to download it and that put
more work on the servers.  it should be cleared up now, try again.

try to ping www.battle.net - you probably have problems with internet
connection. Take a look at packet loss and average ping time.

What is the speed of your modem? I have the same problem at 14.4 but after
changing to a 33.6 modem, the problem disappeared.
