Lag on EV1 Servers?

[Kaos]

Is your computer plugged directly into a modem? Or are you connected to a router?

its connected straight to the modem

[Spook]

i have NEVER seen lag that bad... wow is all i have to say

i have NEVER seen lag that bad... wow is all i have to say

so hard to do the window jump at pp1 with 3 fps and a hugh packet loss idk how i did it once

[jitspoe]

Is this only happening on the EV1/gM servers?  It really looks like something is screwy on your end.  I don't know how network issues would cause your framerate to drop so much.

Edit: Are the GT servers working OK?  Try doing a tracert to 69.93.11.66 .

I played on wades server yesterday and I had huge lag spikes.  I use comcast cable.  I hardly ever lag, I found it to be rather odd.

[jitspoe]

Can you do a tracert to both the ev1 server and the gt server?  I'm curious if they have different routing.

Hmm, that looks a bit suspect. 200+ ping to that hop?  Also, that one isn't on my tracert.  I think we're getting somewhere here.  Thanks for the reply.

[Gold_Leader]

Oh ya no problem man.  I usually get around 20-30 ping on EV1 servers and I just thought that it was weird that I would lag on a server with that kind of ping.  I get the same ping with GT servers.  It was never constant lag just huge lag spikes that would last for like a minute or two.  If you want I can take a picture of my netgraph on an EV1 server for you.

[Spook]

sorry to bring this topic back up but i was just playing on an ev1 server, and i had some VERY bad packet loss. If anyone can help me figure out why it's lagging so bad, either my personal problem or the server itself i would appreciate it.

[KiLo]

At about the same time this happened to Spook I was playing on the EV1-Classic Config.

I continued to have terrible lag like I had before.
Now I am off to try the EV1-Alt Servers.
