I've tried to use several different proxy servers to see if I could find something that didn't trace through the faulty hopone router, but so far neither me or Turban has managed to find anything good. We can be lucky and find something that changes the trace without adding any significant lag, but there are alot of different proxies to go through.

If someone knows of a proxy that could work please let us know, maybe we can find a decent solution to this. I'm going to try out more proxies myself, and I'll post any proxy that improves my lag.

[Turban]

So far the only proxy that I've found that helps at least a little (still not playable) is a Socks5 proxy from Russian Federation.

Open Continuum.exe

View => Proxy Options => Proxy Settings

[Enable SOCKS5 Proxy Server]

HOST: 87.249.9.253
PORT: 1080

Worked for me and lowered my PING from 790ms to 250-460ms, but as I said, not playable. Didn't work for Noah though as far as I know. :fear:

U need to contact ure internet provider, they can reroute u. The problem is that they wont do anything about it unless they can see it effects multiple people.
Dont call, send an email with your traceraport and a working traceraport from someone in your region and maybe a link to this thread. It might take a week or 2 but they can help.

[Displaced]

yall got shitty internetz, i never get hopone or any other bullshit lag. EVER :wub:

Might and his stoner connection

[Ephemeral]

The chances of your ISP caring about this, or willing to doing something, is about 0. Like Dutch said, if the ISP heard from a large percentage of its customers, it MIGHT be willing to bring pressure on the part of the backbone that is causing the problem. But even in that case, most ISP cannot dictate how traffic gets routed across the internet.
My opinion is that you guys are wasting your time with this.

<votes for an easy, maybe a bit pricey, fix>

Move.. server.. to.. New York!

fixed. :wub:

I have found myself a temporary solution to fix the HopOne lag; though it's not perfect it will do for now.

<trying to find a better alternative, but this one is pretty good and at least playable>

STEP 1: Download the free trial (30 days) of ProxyCap and install it. Restart computer.
STEP 1.2: Open ProxyCap and make sure your firewall does not block the program.

It will look something like this:



STEP 2: Go to Ruleset -> Proxies and create a New Proxy Server:
STEP 2.1: Make a SOCKS V5 Proxy with 204.188.222.180:23998 (IP:Port)



STEP 3: Go to Ruleset -> Rules and create a New Tunnel Rule
STEP 3.1: Make sure you set Rule Type as Tunnel through Proxy.
STEP 3.2: Make sure your Transports (TCP/UDP) are both checked.
STEP 3.3: Make sure your application is specified as Continuum.exe
STEP 3.4: If it doesn't work, then just simply Disable the rule.



STEP 4: Open up Continuum.exe and have fun playing without the annoying 790ms.

[Turban]

Another way (though it doesn't work for all players) is to just simply open Continuum.exe and go to View => Proxy Options and enter this there:

[X] ENABLE SOCKS5 PROXY SERVER

Host: 204.188.222.180
Port: 23998

Though suddenly that proxy has given me high ploss. Had a steady 230ms with 0.2 0.1 earlier. Now it's up to 250ms and high plosses.
