11:45 is disco time
« on: November 16, 2006, 09:01:21 AM »
Had this problem a while back. then it seemed to go away for a while. Now it seems to be back again

Exact same time every night 11:45
I loose connection to host when playing AH

In looking in my events viewer I see that there is an error message at that time that says

Your ISP is refreshing the lease on the IP address.  Nothing unusual about that and it can cause a disco depending on how fast they can get the DHCP server to respond.

If the DHCP server response takes too long, a disco will happen.  There is nothing that can really be done about it, unless your ISP changes its release/refresh time in the server.

It is the nature of dynamic IP addresses and probably for about 50% of the discos that happen in a game.

when i was an ISP d00d, i could assign a permenent IP to subs that asked for it nicely.
most of the subs that asked for it were teh gamerers...btw if you talk to your ISP d00d, ask them for me if "sub" is short for subscriber or subnormal intelligence.  
i never got the skinny on that one...:O :O :noid :noid :noid :noid :noid :confused:

Ok I admit it, I live in your computer right between the little square green thing and the long brown thing, and every time a piece of dust crosses me I call the network connection and he does what I want since we both go to the power supply for dinner all the time LMAO.

Thats awfully binary of you Julie.
