Wingblade Posted October 15, 2005 Report Posted October 15, 2005 My old computer in the spare bedroom used to run Continuum perfectly on 26.4kbps dial up, slow I know but it hardly ever lagged or specced me. Now the old computer does not even play Continuum. I'll goto a server, if I shoot it makes a strange sound, but after a little while it will d/c me saying No data from server or something of that effect. I close Continuum, then about 15-30 seconds later my computer just disconnects from the internet. I just got this computer and I was hoping to be playing Continuum again. I can but no more than like 5 minutes. I look at the screen before entering a server it says 180-200. Normal ping for my 26.4k. However i can enter a server and it says like 540 ms. Sooner or later I get specced for high ploss. I did the "?packetloss" command and it says something like ServerToYou: 0.1% YouToServer: 40%+. Anyone know what might be wrong and have a solution. I would greatly appreciate it. I read the other topics but I dont think they could help, specially since one was about DSL.

★ SOS Posted October 16, 2005 Report Posted October 16, 2005 You might be able to play a less demanding zone, for example Trench Wars. Also, be sure to close all other network-using programs when playing Continuum.
