Lost UDP Session switch to TCP please help

[flatiron1]

Thanks Skuzzy, but how do you find this utility? I have vista home premium

[Skuzzy]

Right-click on the "Start" button, go to "Properties" and select the option to switch to classic view.  Then you will get the "Run" menu option back.

Start->Run->DXDIAG <ENTER>

Skuzzy,

Is this something that is going to clear itself up on its own or are there other things that I can do on my end to fix this or slow it down fom happening so often. Or do I need to contact my service provider to see if it is sonething that they can do on their end?  Could it be my internet cable modem going bad since my connection seams fine and stable for about an hour and then drops out and comes back after a few minutes.  I still havent been able to copy the image of pingplotter showing my connection drop out at one hour.  I have exported a text image of the sample that shows the drop out at about an hour and when the connection comes back after a few minutes.

It depends on what the cause of the disco is.  There are a hundred different reasons why a system will disco.  It could be local computer issues, it could be Internet.  Locally, everything effects the connection.  Sounds, graphics, network all have the capability to cause a disco.

I can go for the percentage shots and take my best guess.  Right now, the Internet is a mess with all the people all over the world watching the election propaganda and seeing where the it will all lead.

Some services are more effecte dby it, than others.  That is just a guess.  It could be a number of other things.

The best thing to do is to strip everything in the computer back to basicsto see if the problem persists.  Get rid of custom sounds, skins, dial back the maximum texture size and set the resolution lower.  Get rid of al lthe background process and programs you can stand.  With all that done, then see if the problem continues.  If it does, there is a good chance it is Internet related.

Tom, the only thing you can try to do is contact support at Road Runner and let them know you are not a happy camper.  You need to send the data to them as well.  First tier support will tell you thereis no problem as they are only responsible for your immedaite connection, which does look fine.

I suspect things will get better some time after the election is over, but when that will happen is hard to say.  Thereis going to be a back lash of activity after the election due to people all crying about how we are all screwed, no matter who wins.  Due to the record level of voting happening with this election, I expect that backlash to be pretty significant.

Thanks for taking the time to look at the post skuzzy and answer my questions.  I will continue to be an unhappy camper and deal with the problem for now and hope for a better connections in the future after the election.  I'm sure complaining to Road Runner would get me just what you said, them saying it's not their promblem it's further down the line.  Thanks again to all who have viewed and posted concerning this matter,  good Hunting to all! and Chk 6!!

You just need to get passed first tier support.  Ask specifically for next level support.  If you do not let them know you are not happy, they are going to assume everything is just peachy keen.

I hope you are right about the increased problems due to the upcoming election.  I also have noticed frame freezes as of late, on a system that ran fine before.

[Skuzzy]

"Frame freezes" mean a lot of different things to me.  If it is resource related, then nothing happening on the Internet will change that.  No matter what is wrong, you have the power yourself to discover it and possibly correct it.

"Frame freezes" can be texture loads, sounds loading, lack of CPU cycles to provide a timely update to the video data, video card out of processing power, background processes firing off, general hard disk access and many others.

If you automatically assume your computer cannot be the problem, then there is really not much that can be done to help improve any given situation.  Without a knowledge basis to work from, everything is just a guess.

Sort of like asking a blind man to help choose the colors of paint for a room.

What do you mean by first tier, and next level?,  Like upgrading to a faster kind of internet i.e more expensive?

When you call support at a large ISP, the person you will be handed to will only check your immediate connection to their router.  That is as far as they will check and in your case, it is not enough as your problems lie well beyond your immediate connection, from all indicators I have to look at.

You need to get passed the first support guy.  Different terminology may be used, but usually they call it "escalation".  Tell the first support guy, there is nothing wrong with your immediate connection, but there appears to be somethjing wrong with the gateways to/from the Internet.  And that you would like to talk to someone who can address those issues.

Tell the first guy you have data you can email to them if they wuold like to see it first.
