Fixed Connection Issue...

swixblade · February 2003

<div class="IPBDescription">...but thats just the start of problems</div> Thanks to the speedy suggestions on these forums, I able to quickly resolve the connection problems everyone has been reporting. But I still can't play NS (properly) because I am getting frequent lag spikes of 1000-2000 on every server I tried. This seems to be affecting all 56k modem users, because the pings in the scoreboard all show either below 100 or 1000+ . I did not see any pings of 200 - 400 typical of correctly working 56k . I can only conclude that this is related to whatever WON is up to. The explanation of the original problem given in the annoucements forum mentions the new woncom.lst: <i>uses static IP addresses instead of DNS entries</i>, so I wondered if that could have anything to do with this modem related issue.

Anyone have suggestions to fix the lag problem?

I have 56k and I haven't have lag spikes like that. Try a different server and experiment with the "rate" command in console.

If you upgrade to cable, make sure the coaxial cable you use is bronze, I saw quite the difference when I went from aluminum to bronze.
