Supreme1 Posted June 27, 2006 CID Share Posted June 27, 2006 Ok im not sure why this happens But , Well first off we play a Game called Conquer online once or twice a week we'll have days that are just GOD AWFUL Connectivity wise. and the rest of the Week we wont get kicked off once im really not explaining this well. Monday (Terrible Connection) Tuesday (Decent Connection) Wensday (Almost no problems) Thursday (Almost no problems) Friday (Almost no problems) Saturday (Almost no problems) Sunday (Almost no problems) Now the next time it can go like that but maybe Friday or Saturday may be bad. so im just wondering if anyone knows why this could be happening and if theres like a Network Stability Test or Something.

resopalrabotnick Posted June 27, 2006 CID Share Posted June 27, 2006 are you playing this in a lan or is it on an internet server? are you using wireless? if so are there other wireless devices or appliances like microwaves, cordless phones etc where you are using the wireless? if internet game is your internet connection fast/slow when the problems occur? is there a lot of other traffic when they occur? any info like that would help... also, what is the configuration of the net you are playing on/from?

resopalrabotnick Posted June 28, 2006 CID Share Posted June 28, 2006 so how well does your internet connection work when you see these problems on the game? is it generally laggy or is it fine? and are all of the 4 comps playing or are they doing different stuff on the net?

Supreme1 Posted June 28, 2006 Author CID Share Posted June 28, 2006 One "Game on Alot" Two "Game ALWAYS on" Three "Internet and Chatting" Four "Barely ever even on" Normally the thing that stops the connection is where if you look on the lower right corner there the 2 Computers showing the Network Conectivity. one second that will say a Network cable in Unplugged on all comtuers and come right back up but in the process dcing us.

php Posted June 28, 2006 CID Share Posted June 28, 2006 What router do you have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn0 Posted June 28, 2006 CID Share Posted June 28, 2006 php is on it.....are you running the latest firmware? My parents WRT54G had a similar issue until the firmware upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme1 Posted June 28, 2006 Author CID Share Posted June 28, 2006 the Router is a Linksys BEFSR41 and it has the latest Firmware to my knowledge.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimmer Posted June 28, 2006 CID Share Posted June 28, 2006 alright.. might want to give this a try.. It sounds like you DCHP client is handing out new ips or just dropping you for a second every once in a while.. Since the last firmware release was in July of last year I would get that you have it.. I would reflash the router with a new copy, download it from linksys, and see if that helps at all.. I was able to find some older 3third party stuff.. but it looks like it was well before the july 2005 release. if that doesnt.. then try setting static IPs on the computer that are on the game all of the time.. that should prevent the disconnects..

Supreme1 Posted June 29, 2006 Author CID Share Posted June 29, 2006 Ah yes i forgot to Mention i have Static Ip's setup.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn0 Posted June 29, 2006 CID Share Posted June 29, 2006 I still think it is a router issue since you will get the "Network Cable Unplugged" message. If you were just loosing your internet service momentarily or there was some noise on your line, you would not get that message. Check the date and version of your firmware. You need to know which hardware version you have, it is on the tag I believe. Go to this Linksys support page and follow it through to the firmware section: Click Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resopalrabotnick Posted June 29, 2006 CID Share Posted June 29, 2006 do you have pets? have you checked the cables for physical damage? do you roll wheeled furniture or wheelchairs across the cbales? are the plugs damaged/dirty /corroded? it might be just what the thing says. bad cables...
