Solid Knight Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I want to drop all slow connections with my router. Is this possible? Some of the games I play are P2P and the latency can get ridiculous when another player is across the planet trying to play against me. Can I just have my router auto-drop that connection when the latency is above a specified level? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+LogicalApex MVC Posted May 30, 2012 MVC Share Posted May 30, 2012 You wouldn't want to configure this on a router level as I can only see it causing serious problems down the road. To my knowledge, you can't configure anything like this on a consumer level router, at least, and for good reason. In the case of online gaming the latency is important and high latency is undesirable, but the same isn't true for general web browsing and file downloads (well low latency is preferred but it isn't as deadly as in a game). As a result, if the router cut connections at a certain threshold you could have problems with sporadically dropped connections when you aren't gaming.

De.Bug Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 http://seriousbit.com/netbalancer/ Try that out. Works good for me, and I don't know of any bad limitations for the free version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
