Title: Server very high Ping
Post by: [evilz]Sedda on April 04, 2007, 02:41:03 pm

I have a problem with my server. Its a dedicated serer on my computer.

All people have a very high Ping there.

by
a) not playing at the same time
b) getting a broader line
c) using a dedicated, standalone server
d) running _only_ the term-server on the server, no other services whatsoever

Actually the problem may not be with you at all but with your service provider.  Posting a tracert from one of your friends would show where the problem is.

Bandwidth itself is rarely the problem.  I have seen very low ping times (latency) on some dial-ups and very high pings on some broadband connections.  DirectWave (satallite broadband) is known for high bandwidth, but also very high pings.  Occasionally my 10/1 Mb connection will experience very high pings.  We then forward a copy of a tracert to the field techs via DSLReports and they track down the offending router or gateway and replace it.  Much quicker and easier than trying the customer service routine.
