Well you must be fat and ugly. Very Happy

How many computers do you have on your router?
Whats your router model? And current firmware version?
Oh and I oopsed, you don't need to forward 50817 to 50817 TCP/IP and UDP but that shouldn't hurt it. Do make sure you have the others under UDP though.

And of course, firewalls are the devil.

This happens when I play rakion at my parents house... I ping very good to everyone when the room is 4 v 4 or less, when it's 5 v 5 it jumps up to a constant 800+ ms. :/ If I summon even if it was 2 v 2 it still lags Sad

I tried to run the cable (1.5mb down 256kbup) directly into my NIC and it still have the same problem. The computer that I had was exactly the same as the one I had in college where it never lagged even if I summoned 3 drags. So the hardware on my part wasn't the issue, either the cable modem was whacked or my bandwidth was just simply too poor.. :/

jowy, ou probably wont be able to help. I've spent literally hundreds of hours tyring to fix it as well as spending some money on phone and online tech support.
The model number is SMC2804WBR-CA and if you have this router I suggest you find some elaborate way of destroying it.

I've never had any troubles of the sort with Linksys.

At home (I'm in college now, but BEFORE that), my father ran his own software business from home, and he had a pretty elaborate network setup. A 4-port network hub, 3 routers and a wireless transmitter, all connected to one cable modem. Never had any problems whatsoever, even though the internet was split between over 9 computers in the house, with minimal net lag. a 10mbps down / 1.2 up did help though Smile

I've always found Linksys hardware to be extremely reliable however, and have NEVER had problems with them, and their firmware is easy to update and use.

Yeah, I do have an SMC router but I still had the same problems when I used a linksys (I think thats what it was at least =x ).

I'll mess around with the info you gave tomarrow Jowy since I'm going to bed now; thank you. ^_^

I fixed my lag elion. Heres how I did it.

I bought another router and tried that but the wireless on it wasnt good enough for the wireless computers on my network so I hooked it up like so:

internet into the internet port of the new router
all hardwire computers into the regular ports of the new router.
one wire going from a regular port of the new router to a <u>regular</u> port of the old router.

I then changed the IP of the old router to the SAME ip as the new router. Voila! no more lag.
