Status Problem and Download Rate!!

[foozball26]

Hey guys i have been reading through the forums and especially individual topics to see if I can resolve these problems to no avail.

I have the infamous status problem where it won't pull it up with 14+ players in the server. My router (Linksys BEFW11S4) doesnt have an option for enabling fragmented packets. Nor did changing the MTU value to 700 work.

Any other way to get this working? or else im forced to buy a new router with those options, if so which wireless 802.11b router do you all recommend with fragmented packets option.

ALSO, anyway to get the client download speed from 4-7 KB/sec up. I have been on servers where they download at 150 KB/sec so I know its possible. changing the rate doesn't seem to help any sustantial amount.

Thanks.

Save your money, the patch should be out within the week.


fixed in 1.3, no longer needs to fragment packets.

well it depends a lot on the server you try too d/l from


try this to open your rate up

\rate 99999

that will give all it can take

ok glad to know the 1.3 addresses this.

I've read upping the rate only yeilds about 12 kb/sec
