this problem has only cropped up since i bought a new pc. basically what happens is.. every time i TP into a region i've not been to before, i ALWAYS have to relog. after a few moments of landing in a new sim, i won't be able to move my avatar. i won't see any other avatars move. but i can still IM, sometimes still talk in local chat, textures will continue to rez, but then... eventually i'll get kicked off SL like my internet connection dropped (screen turns gray and it'll tell me to View IM & Chat or Quit SL). one relog usually fixes it and i can explore, rez, whatever in the new sim okay. sometimes, though, it'll take two or even three relogs before i can function in a new region without it getting stuck and booting me off like my internet goes down. however, my internet is fine and stable and not intermittent, and my computer handles SL just fine on ultra with no issues with lag. this has happened on every viewer i've used -- kirsten's, firestorm and LL's viewer. and this has only happened on my newer, more powerful computer. this never happened on my older computer. is it a bandwidth/internet issue? i currently have DSL and as i said, i've never had this issue before with my older computer. doing a speed test says my download speed is 2.87 mbps.. is this not enough? or is there some setting i'm not adjusting in the viewers that will make this stop? it's very annoying when sim-hopping, exploring, shopping, etc.. because every time i visit some place new, i have to relog (sometimes multiple times) to be able to move around.

i am going to be purchasing my first land over the weekend (probably) and i don't want a linden home, because i'd like to have the option to open up a business.. but i've looked through a lot of ads for land sales (in the forums) as well as read through the knowledge base and there's still something i'm unsure of.. i've seen land advertised as commercial and residential... so, if i buy land that someone has advertised as residential, can i not build a business there? or vice versa, if i buy land advertised as commercial, can i not have a skybox/home set up there as well as the business building too? thanks for any info <3

are alienware laptops (specifically alienware m18x) good enough to run SL on ultra w/ shadows? there is more info on it here: http://www.dell.com/us/p/alienware-m18x/pd.aspx i'd be getting it with the Dual 1.5GB GDDR5 NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 460M – NVIDIA® SLI® Enabled graphics card, most likely. i want to be able to take decent looking pictures in SL without having to photoshop them, and to be able to run SL on high/ultra with shadows and shaders and all that good stuff on. is this laptop gonna do that for me? thaaaaanks! :D
