Auto Disconnects

[Cast 1st MRB]

I keep getting auto disconnects on the server, where i lag for abit then it goes will auto disconnect in 30 seconds. Driving me nutz, am fine on any other server. Then you get theses lag spikes, where one min your there, next you back where you started

Are you running a specialized config?

How about any skins?

What sort of network are you running? Wired, hopefully.

[Cast 1st MRB]

am using elfs config

no skins

wired network yes

I was having a similar problem, disconnected my router, plugged my PC straight into my modem and now I have zero problems.... other than my laptop, xbox, and iphone not having access to my network.... and my pc being naked on the internet....

Is it still naked if you connect from router and to your pc? I do that...but I do get the same problems as Cast from time to time...

By naked I mean that it doesn't have a firewall protecting it from the dangers of the net. Personal routers aren't actually routers, they're NAPT (or PAT) gateways. Which makes them (unless configured with DMZ) operate as simple firewalls. (fyi, they are not NAT gateways. that would imply 1 to 1 address translation, which in the simple case is equivalent to having DMZ enabled for every PC)

I must admit I didnt understand half of that. But I did get the part about being naked. Witch is why I did connect from router.

And you are saying that thats better than nothing right? But by doing that I might get the problems that Cast have?

(keep in mind I also use configs and skins, so I understand that that might be part of the problem)

I suppose what I was saying is that I'm running naked right now, and although it isn't very safe I'm getting good results.
