Title: Host Connection lost
Post by: Blagard on November 02, 2010, 05:54:27 PM
This does not happen to me very often.
I hope Titanic Tuesday was OK fot the majority but I tried it four or five times and lasted about 3 or 4 minutes each time before losing the connection.

Running ping plotter did not reveal much except sometimes flaky connections a couple of hops near the end.

Will try again another night and hope this is not going to be a regular occurance.

Just to update.

After giving up trying to fly in Titanic Tuesday, I went to the on line training arena to see how long it would be before losing the connection. Strange thing was, I did not lose it at all and messed around in there for an hour before quiting normally.

Could be resource issues.  Just a guess as I would need to see a Ping Plotter output to see if it was network related.

Resource issues are easy to trace, if that is indeed the cause.  A DXDIAG output, along with your in-game settings (video settings, options->graphic detail->advanced).

Must have been an isolated problem that one night. I have been on tonight in the Orange LW no problems for a couple of hours before logging.

Not really.  World Series lag.  Wait until the Super Bowl.  Lag will be redefined.  Streaming video is going to kill the Internet.

You could always move the servers to the UK I'm sure that would fix "my" problem  :aok
