wrighty496 Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 (edited) hi van anyone help plz what is ping to high i get this when trying to go online and practice 5530[/snapback] Hi Mouse, Just so's you know, the Ping is a measure of how well (quickly) your computer is communicating with another (in this case, the server at Jolt). 'Ping too high' can be a nasty fault to track but theres a few suggestions..... If you're on a 56k connection, make sure you check the 'tweaking' guide on www.ukdirt.co.uk - theres lots of hints there for your connection quality. Get some spyware software (do a search for AD-AWARE in your preferred search engine). Spyware plants itself in your computer and uses your bandwidth so you can't get a strong connection with spyware running. The same can apply for all manner of trojans and viruses, so if you arent already running anti-virus, get some (AVG is a good free programme with free download and updates) get END-IT-ALL and check you have no background applications running that might slow your pc down if you're running a firewall, make sure that isnt stopping the communication back and forth. etc etc etc and so it goes on lol. Read the tweaking guide and ask as many questions as you need to to get into Jolt its worth the hassle i hope the final alternative is Broadband but that depends on how big your pockets are - as the old adage goes 'how fast can you go? how fast can you afford?') Best wishes Mouse....hope to see you soon in Jolt ....... Wrighty Edited February 2, 2005 by wrighty496 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
