Hi all,
I have been suffering from the following problem:
Some time ago BT has gave me a hub. Since then I have not been able to
join to any game and play comfortable. When I do this the net latency
is so high that I am not able to do anything and usually the game drops
me out. As a remedy I configured ip port forwarding (6112 in and out)
to host a games. In most cases is fine and I can play even 3v3 quite
all right. Why I still can not join and play without lags? Is anybody
here who had similar problems and has managed to sort this out? Any
tips in router configuration? Why the joining to the games is different
than hosting the games? After all this is not a client-server
connection!
Cheers:
Gregor
