Hi there,
a few quick q's?

Are you running any Updates, Torrents or Shares?

Is your line yours or is it shared between a few people?

Lastly, is it only MOHAA that this is happening in?


Cheers

Are you running any Updates, Torrents or Shares ?
no updates no torrents no downloads while playing

Is your line yours or is it shared between a few people?
im sharing it with a freind but i remove his connection and try to play but it didnt give me a good ping though

Lastly, is it only MOHAA that this is happening in?

[sniperhunter]

i reinstalled my windows
i still got very high ping
it is +300
any solution have u got ?

[StormBringer_UK|RET|]

hmmm, let me have a think, be back soon.

[StormBringer_UK|RET|]

Alrighty. I've had a look at the server, that looks cool.

Can you go to www.speedtest.net and test your speed. Give me the results of the test against what you are paying for.

I get 9.55mb/s download and .48Mb/s upload compared to a 10Mb/s and .5Mb/s line.

Have you any anti-virus running? Can you add your MOHAA folder to the exceptions list?

S.

[sniperhunter]

thats it

is it good or bad ?

on the new windows i dont have an antivirus running

[StormBringer_UK|RET|]

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

There's your problem.

What speed should you be getting? I mean, you are running at 200Kb/s, that's only 4x a dial up connection. I assume that you are using ADSL, if so, you might want to test the cables that are connected to your phone line. Have you added any new extensions?

This might be a pain to do, but it will rule out any issues with cables.

Get your ADSL modem connected to the MAIN phone socket with the shortest/best cable you have (remember you still need the filter). Then connect your PC to the modem (use an Ethernet connection if possible). Try the speedtest again. If it improves, that suggests that the phone cables are iffy. To double check, go back to your original setup and test the speed again, if it drops off, we are confirmed.

If you are paying for a 2Mb line and you are getting only 0.2Mb, I would be complaining to your ISP.


TTFN

Do you have wireless connection? If so just reset the router and make sure that if you play MOHAA u go to multiplayer options and put the internetconnection on XDSL as u have ADSL. Any other connection will raise your ping. Make sure you check this last note because when reinstalling windows and MOHAA it's possible that the multiplayeroption is standing on 1000.

[sniperhunter]

well fafara ,
i made what u said but i got higher ping

and about what StormBringer_UK|RET| told me
some thing strange happened ,
when i took my router to the MAIN phone line and plugged it into the router
the SYNC and Online lights wasnt flashing

when i plugged the cable from the Filter SYNC and Online came back to work

that doesnt make sense at all

so i couldnt check my speed at the main cable , i can check it only by the cable from the Filter

This is a wee mistake you made. You MUST use a filter on the line AT ALL TIMES between your Phone socket and the modem or you will get no signal to your modem. Look at post 8, there is a bit in brackets.

Try again with a filter in place and see if it helps. I doubt it will. It looks like your general speed is very low, but this helps to find out where the problem lies.

All the best

[sniperhunter]

first ,
thank u for ur care .
i tried it with a filter connected and it gives no signal though

what can i do then ?

[StormBringer_UK|RET|]

hmmmmm. If you are getting a signal from the cable on the long run but not the short run that suggests that the cable is faulty, especially if you are using the correct filter on the line before the modem.

Getting a bit stumped myself, but I do think your generally very low speed is part of the issues.

Have a good weekend
S.

[sniperhunter]

thank u very very much for ur care

i called my ISP ( i was very tough with them lol )

i told them that my speed was reduced 4 no reason

and this is the SpeedTest result for now

i dont care about upload

but i think its far away better . isnt it ?

[StormBringer_UK|RET|]

Hey there. Can't see a speed test result, but sounds like it is much improved. Of course, tthe big test is in game. Is it less laggy now?
