I recently upgraded my PC, and formatted and installed XP Pro.
Since then I get a redjack in T1 every 10-15 seconds that lasts for a second then clears. This causes the game to hitch and makes it unplayable.
I havnt had this problem with any other online game I've played since upgrading, and I disable all background tasks.
I get the exact same thing on every server I play, in game pings from mid 30's up to 90's. I see no PL in game and the ping doesnt vary any more than normal (about 5-10ms variance).
Offline training the game does not do this, so it must be a network issue, but I trace route to the servers and poll each hop, and get great pings to them all and no packet loss.
I think maybe its my in game network settings (packet size and so on) since I can't remember what I had them set to before. I've tried the modem and T1 pre-sets and no change.
I have also recently added a LinkSys router, but like I said I don't get this problem with any other online game, so I think it must be software related.
Any thoughts? Also, people on cable please post your in game network settings, I do remember that I used a custom setting before that someone recommended, but its been about 2 years and can't remember what it was.
Thx
