    70 milliseconds is a unusually high value for the 2nd hop, as the expected value should be less then 10ms...

    try rebooting both your router and modem/gateway and see if this improves the condition. If it doesn't, you may need to replace the router, or have the ISP look at the modem/gateway unit...

    The netcode in this game feels rather clunky..
    STO needs more throughput than my connection actually has, 99% of missions I'm usually warping around with my ship throttle sliding up and down by itself, weapons unable to fire and being unable to turn my ship. STFs now commonly end with everyone vanishing, and the rewards screen popping up, along with "leaving the map in 40 seconds", I don't even look at the 20 or 10 player missions anymore, as I am unable to do anything upon warping in, leaving me unable to do the special events like crystalline catastrophe and the new mirror invasion, there is simply too much going on, and it is flooding the connection.

    It would be great if things could be a little bit more optimized.. I understand that lots of data needs to be sent, but it shouldn't need me to have a 4MB line to just do missions.

    No tracert, latency is fine, just a problem with actual data throughput.

    Haven't had any problems running 4 characters through the Mirror event and Battlezone myself...

    If you suspect there's an issue with throughput, you should run the 'Net Test' network diagnostics described in this thread... http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=225155

    and post the results, as this would provide clues if you have actually have a throughput problem with your connection.

    Also substitute the 'pathing' command for the 'tracert' command, as 'pathping' will indicate if you have a 'dropped packet' problem, and where along your connection path they are occurring...

    This explains it right here... dropped (as in lost or thrown away) packets along the Cogent backbone...

    You could try the Euro Game Proxy option in the Launcher in the hopes that it directs you to a less congested path across the Atlantic, but its hit or miss, with no guarantee of improvement...

    is there a real chance that a lot of the laging / diconect problems have to do with massive data trafic along the transcontinental lines due to a DDOS wave that we had ?

    I shall give that try, many thanks for the quick response and advice.

    EDIT - That seems to have done the trick, for now, thanks again!!

    Once again problem is on your side of the atlantic. Been dissconected a few times today now and it is getting anoying.

    If the american side of the Internet is in such a bad shape you really should consider moving servers. :mad:

    Hi again,

    Unfortunately back to the rubberbanding and server disconnects, reran the tracert
    and the results are the same avg 6-10ms UK side of the pond, then hitting 100+
    over in the States. It's almost consistent enough to be turning into a gamebreaker.
    I'm not really sure how relevant it is, but a large portion of my dc's and/or server
    not responding, appear to occur during or just after map changes. I have also noticed
    an increase in loading screen times for common maps.


    also took the liberty of running a nettest too..

    contacting nettest server..

    I did a reformat tonight and then did a fresh reinstall of STO (usually I just copy the game folder to my external drive then back when I am ready for it but I want a fresh install this time.) first I tried ARC then Steam and finally one of my hard copies every time I got this message

    also I tried a nettest and it just times out, all other games I have install work fine WarThunder and Forsaken World those are the two I have installed so far and I connected fine.

    any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Edit: issue resolved itself after getting service pack 1 and some more updates installed.

    Guys, I'm having multiple BSOD's daily. About 15 minutes ago, I had one right after another. This has been going on since Tuesday of last week and increasing in progression. After playing for 2 1/2 years I've noticed that, every so many months, this happens after a maintenance patch. The last time it was this bad for me was in late 2012. Back then, you guys had an update (around October, I think) and I was having BSOD's several times a day. At that time, I gave up and came back the following patch and everything was fine.

    The BSOD's ONLY HAPPEN WITH THIS GAME.
    And yes, I mean a COMPLETE SYSTEM CRASH.
    In late 2012, when this same event occurred, I was running Windows Home Premium 64 bit.

    As of this date,
    I am running a clean install of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.
    AMD CPU
    AMD HD 6310
    I have an excellent internet connection.
    I have a fully updated Operating system. This includes DX, Java, .Net 4.5
    I have a brand new Hard Drive (It is a spin drive not a solid state and it was bought brand new about 7 days ago.)
    I just added a new memory stick (4GB, yes brand new, not used.) to see if I needed more memory. Didn't fix it.
    My router was new as of 2 months ago along with my USB Wireless adapter. They are Dual Band and running on the 5 GHz line only with no Bandwidth issues.

    Please fix, thanks.

    Hi,

    I have a problem when getting invitations and accepting to play in groups for fleet, space or ground based play. The tech support seems to think its a local performance issue but i think its something else.

    When i play in the Dyson against the Voth T-Rex there are many people there doing their stuff and if there are to many then the game will lag badly but has never crashed. The problem only happens when i am running around and then i get a pop up that someone has invited me to join and play as a team/group and i accept then after about 5 seconds the game crashes.

    This only happens after i accept the invitation to play/join the group/team so please advise if anyone have come across this problem.

    Thanks

    ...

    So how much Video memory does your system have? And have you tried running at a lower screen resolution??

    Hi,

    I have a GeForce GT 440 with 1GB RAM and have not tested yet with a lower screen resolution but will test this next.

    Also would just like to point out that i had received an error message only one time and it was something about the PhysX but after that i have not received any error.

    A dump was sent the last time around to the cryptic. Let me know if you need more information and thanks for the reply.

    Thanks

    hmmm... 1GB of Video RAM is starting to approach 'marginal' if you're running at 1080p resolution. The other significant question would be system RAM, as 4GB would also start approaching 'marginal' when running at 1080p...

    Seems like I'm getting "System Not Responding" every few minutes. Sometimes, it'll take me back to the login screen and say that I was disconnected from the server.

    I'm running on a wireless connection. Connecting directly isn't really an option because the modem/router that Comcast provides can only be plugged in one spot in the house. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    .....

    Your 'Trace Route' is showing excellent network latency values, so this is simply not the information needed to pinpoint what the problem is...

    The 'Net Test' diagnostic results would be useful, as it tests for sustained network throughput bandwidth. and using the 'pathping' command (which uses the same syntax as the 'tracert' command) will check if data packets are being lost or thrown away in your Internet path to the STO Servers...

    Hey, thanks for the response. I ran the two tests you suggested.
