there is nothing wrong with my machine or connection.
How did you determine that?
Did you make any changes to your computer around the middle of July? Did you check to see if there are applications or processes on your computer running in the background when you try to play WGT? Like your anti-virus or malware programs?
You've got all the temp internet files, browsing history, download history, cookies and other plug-in data, cached images and files, passwords, auto fill form data, hosted app data, flash player caches, Java cache, etc cleared?
The only way you can check the Internet path from your computer to WGT is by using the Traceroute command, and Traceroute only samples your Internet connection in 1 direction, from your computer to WGT using a single packet of data. It can't trace the route from WGT to you.
