LAN causing latency problems?
« on: October 11, 2004, 03:39:08 PM »

All evening I've been trying to play on CSR but I've been pinging near on 400 - my rates are all the same as normal - just a little choke and no loss, nothing out of the norm.
My latency in UK servers seems normal at first but it doesn't seem stable - its been up and down a lot today. I've not played CS in a couple of weeks so there's a few things that it could be.
We've got a network in the flat with one computer connected to the internet and two others connect to it through a hub. We recently changed the hub from 10Mb/s to 100Mb/s but I don't see how that could cause this problem.
Generally the network seems fine - but I have to admit I'm not really very sure how to test whether there are any problems with a network.
Anyone got any ideas as to what I should do if this doesn't improve? I mean it could be my ISP or something so I'll give it a day or so but its been bad all night and I've never had any problems like this before.

Go to start>run> and type in cmd.
enter in tracert 66.208.103.31
See if you can find where the latency is coming from.

Thanks these are the results - I don't know what to make of them, but is the "timed out.." bit at the start normal?

Lines 11 and 12 are where your problem is for CSR. Considering your overseas, I'm not really sure where this should be. But it does look high.

Go to arin.net and do a whois lookup. Find the admins E-Mail account for the router causing the problem. Then send an E-Mail with the tracert. Other then that, your boned till they fix it.

Thanks guys - I'm not really sure what you're on about so I'll probably just wait and see if it gets better in a day or so.

Hmmm.. where are you from Pancho? When you said UK servers I guess I thought your with JB and Grounded over the pond. If your not, then those pings are way too high.
But I'm also guessing since the FQDN has london, uk and nl (netherlands) you are overseas.

Keep in mind that it looks like the hop between 10 and 11 looks to be from the Netherlands to Virginia. I would expect that one to take a bit of time, but since I don't have a baseline, I can't tell if that's what ti should be or not. I don't suppose there could just be a lot of overseas network traffic keeping those two particular routers busy, eh? I don't know how many separate lines there are to distribute the load.
