Big lag/ping help please !

Hi there ,
I've got a really big problem , since when i got Window 7 , it seems like warsow is unplayable , i get really high lag and don't know even why , usually when i TAB in order to show result and ping I also get really high lag :-( , I'm currently on window 7 32bits ^^ , hope you can help me please :D . I had Window Vista before and lags wasn't really that high...

Oh ! Forgot to say something , i'm on wireless , i can't use ethernet ^^


Please help :'( , i want to play with my friends too :d


a Sad player , Xpres

Anyone can help me there? ;(

there shouldnt be any issues when moving from vista to 7, its almost the same system
i use 7+wlan too and there are no probs at all

idd blame a driver issue or too low memory
7 likes lot of ram

try ping www.warsow-esport.net in command line while you lagging.:) probably U will see some troubles caused by your connection not by warsow client.

Play on a server that is geographically close to you.

1. Install Gentoo
2. Destroy your router and use direct LAN to internets
3. ????
4. PROFFIT !!!

I don't know , because my friends play in IM Insta master and they aren't lagging , they live in the same city and building ^^ ( we're neighbor as I do and they've got the same router as me ... Just they've got a MAC ... :'( I don't know if it makes a real difference :o

Are you behind a Windows firewall? That sounds like it may be giving you some trouble. If you're behind a router and have antivirus software installed, you may as well just turn off the Windows firewall as it's nothing but an annoyance.

Thank you i'll try that ! :p i'll tell you if it works or not ^^

Well i don't know sometimes it goes very high like screen freeze , but it's definitely better :p , if you've got any idea on how to fix it this time? ^^

Try setting your IP as DMZ on the router so it ignores port blocking and gives you priority over other connections on the router, or set up port forwarding for Warsow on the router. I honestly don't know if this will help at all, but it's worth a shot.

When you do this, make sure you set it so your IP will always be given to your PC's MAC address, this way nobody will be able to accidentally use your IP address and take your forwarded ports list.

Check what the period of the lags are. If they are at regular intervals, it may be your wifi scanning for a new network. Sadly I think this is built into the windows wifi manager. Try a neat little tool called wlan optimizer to disable it.

A small freeware tool for Windows Vista / 7 (XP with limitations) disabling the periodical background scan activity for wireless networks. It improves latency time of wireless connections. Hence it is useful for people with wireless connections getting lag spikes (especially during online gaming, audio and video streaming).

Also try to turn off Energy Saving on your Wi-Fi adapter.

1. Right-click the My Computer icon on the desktop or from the Start menu.
2. Click Manage.
3. Click Device Manager.
4. Click the + sign to expand the Network Adapters entry.
5. Right-click the wireless adapter and click Properties.
6. Click the Energy Management tab.

If all else fails, baseball bat.

What router are you using, maybe try firmware update, I cad cisco crap froze all the time, then updated, now it freezes rarely.

Check your ping, fps and cpu and ram. (task manager)

Maybe your main-board is dying.


Also I don't quite understand. Does local game lag or is it mainly net?


PROTIP #2

DID YOU INSTALL DRIVERS AFTER U INSTALLED WIN 7 LOL

- i mean net drivers too. On XP I had exactly the same problem with my old computer

trust the CD's that came with your computer or wifi adapter not default windows shit.

PS oh shit 200 posts
