A-Net ~ Biting off more than they can chew.

Frames per second has only to do with your hardware (and other software if it clogs the system), nothing with net connectivity

lol @ all the bitching and finger pointing......

Take that IP from the ping window, and run a traceroute on it. If the MS jump starts at Anet's servers, then carry on with the rant.

If not, stop being a jerk. Post a pic of the traceroute. If you don't know how to perform a traceroute, ask here or look it up on google.

have you tried using wired instead, i think a-net said in the support that wireless is not advised as you can miss packets.

Another thing you might try is updating or rolling back the driver for your wireless card, i had a huge lag problem a few weeks ago and found that it was because windows had changed the driver to one that sucked, rolling back solved the problem.

or perhaps one of your neighbours is stealing your connection and running multiple intensive tasks on it.

Above all, get tech support on the issue. They can help you track down the cause and eliminate it. Don't just complain, do something about it!

I didn't even notice the FPS was odd until someone here pointed it out. It was the ping time I was having trouble with. kthxbai.


Will do when I get home. I'm at work right now.



It isn't a card. My wireless connector is a UBS-connected external deal... and I've never changed the driver on it. Wired isn't a choice since it is my flatmate that organised the whole thing (and actually gave me a whole talk about how wireless has less resistance and thus faster than cable... despite my arguing to the contrary... and I gave in since he was organising it)...
AND... nobody is stealing the connection since ours is protected.
.... though I neglected ironically to mention that my "secondary" connection is the neighbour's unprotected link that they practically don't do anything with (I suspect they have it just for checking e-mail or something), so I just eat their bandwidth in emergencies (no scruples).

Windows, in it's all-knowing wisdom, [/sarcasm] will sometimes change it for you when it runs it's updates, or just feels like it needs a new one. It would not have been a purposeful thing on your part.

That is a bummer, see if maybe you can get a CAT5 run some time when he isn't around or something, or move your machine next to the router, unplug the router and plug it into your machine, get a direct connection any way you can. Wait till he's gone or asleep, he sounds like a complete wa... sorry, got carried away.

OMFG LOL!!! That is the most absolutely hilarious thing I have heard in a looong time. He probably thinks that if you double a CAT5 back on itself that it will stop your connection the way a hose gets blocked when you kink it. LOL

General and/or more specific tips for reducing/solving lag problems are great, flamefully arguing amongst each other...is not so great.
