Reporting Packetloss / Latency

[DoCk>]

As I said before ... here is one of my recent traces ...

There's nothing wrong with this trace. Looks normal to me...

Also,

Opentransit themselves have 98% packet loss for UDP traffic and 0% packet loss for TCP traffic ... Fishy ... but this is one of the upstreams for getting into trenchwars ...

Totally normal.

I dont know if there is a way to notify upstrem providers to check their UDP packet loss ... its getting annoying ...

Wasting their time. :P

The last two hopone.net hops into the TW server seem dead and trying to play causes automatic spec. using W98.2 & a 56k dial-up external modem.

Totally normal.

Here's your culprit. If the packetloss is this early in the trace, the culprit is probably in your residence. Try plugging your computer directly into your modem, bypassing any routers. Check that all your cabling is working properly, and your modem hasn't gone bad.

dead hop for weeks

06.02.24

For weeks after selecting Continuium (ver.38) icon all it does is load & display a vertical scroll of passing stars & planets. Aparently the hop into the server is blocking packets. Using 56k dial-up and W98.2

in 'advanced options' unchecking EVERYTHING (forcing into memory) allows getting past the vertical scroll screen and finally back into game. Changing gpu drivers and deleting/reinstalling client did nothing.
although the hop into the TW server is still totally blocking ping trace.

Ok, sent to you the data dock ^^

If u need more cycles tell me

I've been getting S2C packet loss since about a few weeks ago, never used to get it. I have BT Broadband so I don't think its my connection.

I emailed you also.

its was 6% for the past week. beside, every sunday i got 360 ping average
i think its a problem with my ISP, more israelies have it with them (goldenlines 012).

[A Cold Place]

I'm also having some minor issues with the routing. One of the servers seems to enjoy losing like 99%...

i'm pretty sure that somewhere in this thread it was mentioned that it's perfectly acceptable for any hopone.net to return 99% loss

It takes about 7 seconds for me to enter the game, i'm used to it taking 3 at the most.
It takes longer to change arena too, and for the menu to come up when i press esc + a.
I've been getting the 'You have been put in spectator mode due to high packet loss' message,
and here is what i got today when i typed ?lag

clearly the loss for hopone.net is what is making my ploss so high... is this problem temporary? I didn't have this ploss problem on tw a few weeks ago, started around last week...

You should let it run more cycles to get more reliable results. It seems like some of the packetloss occurs in your ISPs network, so you should probably contact them for starters. I think it was the core2.dca2 Hopone router that was defective according to the other thread.
