It's a pickup server, called AUS www.xgn.com.au TUE DEDI.I want to see if we get the same warping that we see on the regular server. So when you can, jump on that server, hopefully with a few guys, and see what the warping is like, and how it compares with Tuesday nights. It would be good if we can get Grubbet, EdWood and anyone else who often seems to warp quite a bit.

Its the same guys that get warping on my server but its pretty solid for nearly everyone else.

I've been reading that cloud based virtual servers, while having a pretty good maximum performance, can fluctuate quite a lot in terms of things like bandwidth. But then you'd think it would affect everyone at once. But it's certainly worth trying a different kind of host.

Btw; it's unlikely to be a dedicated server for this purpose only - most likely a server running a large number of things, among them AC instances. It could be a VPS, then it's even more fractured.A proper dedi server hosting starts in the few hunded $$$'s / month on Australian soil - you need to sell quite a few AC instances on it to make a buck. Even the cheapest colocation options start at around $100 + bandwidth. And you need some older unused hardware lying around to be able to use it. (this is in a proper data centre - if it's hosted in someone's home on an NBN connection, it can be infinitely cheaper, but...)If you consider this, the performance is really a gamble. How many people use it, what they use it for, how much did they oversell the server's capacity, the bandwidth...?This is just an FYI, it can still work well, don't get me wrong Logged marty Hero Member Posts: 3747 Karma: -63 Re: Krahl's Dedi Server is up « Reply #4 on: October 24, 2014, 09:35:36 AM » Thats why I think it most likely is client side connection unless it effects everyone on the server but only one way to find out. We will need to try get a few on that server maybe even make it public to try fill it up and give it a proper test.

You guys can hypothesis all you like. tests are underway. your arguments will have to wait a few days.Thanks Mr Krahl for the use of your paid for server.

I have no issues when nobody else is using the net - it's quite good actually. As soon as my partner fires up Chrome my ping jumps - the more traffic the more jumping/warping I get.I used to keep the 'net monitor' open so I could see when my ping spiked and avoid any accidents but they seem to have removed that app... Same goes for other games/general internet usage. If more than one person is on it gets crippled.

Since AC doesn't use much bandwidth but requires a low ping that might mitigate the impact of others on your network. Also, double check that you are not "double NATing" ie do you also have a hardware firewall between the telco router and your LAN. I have turned my Optus cable modem into Bridge mode to avoid that problem and because it too was a shitty router.
