Connection problem
 

Ok, so recently (this week) I started getting kicked from bf2 servers for having a high ping. I ran spyware scans and all that, and they found nothing, but my connection has been noticeably slower recently and my ping will be low when I join the game, but then skyrocket after a round and a half to like 400 or higher. I haven't changed anything with my connection, is there anything that could be causing the recent slowdown?

Re: Connection problem
 

what kinda ISP do you have?

I'm on my university network, I think its T1, I'm not really sure, but it's never been an issue before now, I've played for a long time without this problem.

It possibly could be a utilisation issue on the network but I doubt it
Do you ping directly to the server or try other pings such as sites etc
If not try it if the pings to say http://www.google.com are ok then do a tracert
to the server and see what hop it fails/goes high on.
Also checking for spyware is a good idea but not foolproof. There are a lot of reasons your networking settings can change P2P for example.
Also be aware that as far as I know BF2 measures ping on UDP packets
not TCP so again if your ping in windows goes ok to the server it could be your game installation causing you grief.

try this


go to run

type in


netsh dump

that will reset all your network settings, somtimes it works for me
