Aileron Posted January 12, 2006 Report Posted January 12, 2006 Well, the !@#$%^&*le describes it all. My ping and c2s are really low, but my s2c is really high. I am supposedly on a high speed connection to my apartment network. I know I probably have the hardware to have a low s2c, I just don't have it.
Bargeld Posted January 12, 2006 Report Posted January 12, 2006 Have you recently moved or changed any hardware/settings/etc. ?If nothing has changed recently, then it is probably a temporary situation with the internet, between you and the server of choice. You can try running a trace from the game's main menu for more specific info.
Aileron Posted January 12, 2006 Author Report Posted January 12, 2006 Actually its been like this since I got this connection, but it never really was that bad before. Its just gotten about 5 times worse over the past couple days. The trace revealed that my connection goes through New York and Washington when I live in between those two cities. That might be my problem.
Bargeld Posted January 13, 2006 Report Posted January 13, 2006 I live on orlando and with brighthouse/time warner cable, i hopped from orlando to tampa (straight west to the coast) then to houston, TX... now, on bellsouth DSL, I go from Orlando to Miami (straight south and a little east, about 250 miles). My ping is up by 10-20 ms and ploss is at 3.2 s2c during the evening when I wanna play. Kinda sucks, and I'm considering upgrading the service, and possibly getting a different provider. I just moved in, less than a month ago, so it's new service for me, and it's worse than I had 8(
Aileron Posted January 13, 2006 Author Report Posted January 13, 2006 Well, my connection translated to your situation would be going from Houston to Orlando, Orlando to Miami, and Miami to your house. It just doesn't make sense. This computer is closer to New York than Washington...I have no idea why my packets are making a stop in Washington.
»SOS Posted January 14, 2006 Report Posted January 14, 2006 The ways of the internet are mysterious but wise. Post a trace of 150-300 cycles, maybe it will say something...
