Ping Problem -10Mbit line shouldn't have that kinda prob :/

  • Hey - turns out IRC is out and something a little more modern has taken it's place... A little thing called Discord!

If you are using a router for your home network connection to your ISP, you might look at an occasional reboot of the router. Most of the small 4 and 8 port 100Mb routers suffer from memory leaks, ESPECIALLY those that sport integrated firewalls and DHCP.

I end up with poor ping, incomplete name caching, and all sort of crap.
 
Myeah, maybe u've plugged in the wrong cable?, i Don't know, playing instagib with a ping of 300 is normal for me though, with my isdn connection:mad:
 
If you are NTL, or Virgin Media then that will be why. It seems at busy periods they cannot handle user amount. Often NTL users in UT have to wait til after midnight to expect a decent ping with less pl. I often get 30-40 ping but anywhere between 5-30% of random packet loss. This is unplayable. However lately the pl has been the same but ping goes from 30f1 to 90 f1 in space of 10 minutes, usually occuring around 3.30pm when the Riv's, Dirz's and Mousens come home from sk00l.

Maybe it's due to the fact that you dig up threads from 2002 about netspeed instead of just making a new one about your own problem?
