Harreh Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 So I decided to start playing L4D today but instead I've been presented with woes of horrendous lag and disconnects from the game server. I can search for a game fine, it finds one quite happily, but when I actually get in-game my ping is about 500-1000ms. I usually find that my teammates also have pretty terrible pings aswell. I've tried setting my rates (rate, cmdrate, updaterate) to default but that didn't help, I can play CS: S fine and it's not my firewall (Vista's firewall) since L4D is in the exceptions list. Also, I can't view any servers when I try and use the server browser (via openserverbrowser). L4D has worked in the past but only when I was at uni, living in uni provided accomodation which included internet via an ethernet cable. Now that I'm living at home now, it just doesn't work. Hardware and whatnot: PC: Dell XPS M1530 OS: Vista Home Premium Router: BT home hub (Connected wirelessly) Anyone got any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harreh Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 Well this problem seems to have solved it self for now, but it'll probably come back again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
