Not sure if the trace is good but so far I have had very good lag (80) & ping (fluctuates between 1-5) on the EU server. That seems really good to me since I am near Toronto, Canada.

This is bull@#(!. Papsmear and me and routed through the same points (Paps' hop 11 and my hop 12), except I get a nice 400ms increase in ping. WTF? Can one of the server admins please talk to these grafix.nl guys and see whats up? I've been getting this trace for two days now. I can't play.

ImmZ, I also go through grafix.nl and I have absolutely no problem.
Send them an e-mail and give them examples of the tracelog.

ImmortalZ · Post by **ImmortalZ** » Fri Jan 19, 2007 2:45 pm

I would - if I understood their website. Its in a language I don't understand. The contact page has server e-mail addresses listed. Any idea on which is for sysadmins?

I am not sure what to use though. /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

I sent one to Administrator. I'll wait and see. You guys are a blessing and curse. If it works, I get the lowest lag in my Alleg history. When it doesn't (which is most of the time now), I can't play at all, since the main game is in the EU server now.

During overall connection problem. Still able to command =O

Take your trace and complain to them.

Hmm, usually I'm sitting at 180 lag on EU server.

10-15 on FTX
20-40 on Thalserve
30-80 on Planet

As for Pooks server, haven't seen it around for about a week.
