Problems with lag on the AA game server - Page 2

Well Rude.. here's the results...

on my tracert to your server I got one line of request timed out.. line #17.. two before it hit your server.

I also did it one 4 other servers and go no sign of packet loss but when I connected to the server there was still lag.. lots of it.

So then I did a couple of tracert to Yahoo and Google and everything came up fine...

So now I'm definitely puzzled... two days ago it was fine...

crapola!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep, the provider told me last night that they have been having problems with MCI ( there provider )

They will be moving all their servers to a new host in the DC area around Aug20-23ish. This goes for all servers being hosted from XGShosting

He said MCI is not putting the money into there network like they use to and he refuses to sign another 1 year contract.

Personally I feel UUnet (MCI) is the only branch of MCI making money but who knows what corp. America is thinking.

If you get a chance just for kicks. Try Balls server and let me know if your having any problems. Same provider same network. The only thing I have changed on the aa.com server is, I added skins.

Don't know if this would cause any problems but if it does I will remove them

Sorry for all the trouble

Okay.. well I just went to that server and I started out okay.. probably lag free for like 2-3 minutes.. then all of a sudden... LAG!!!!!!!!!!!

I went to the AA server and the same thing... Good for a short amount of time... then bang... LAG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

any ideas?

Looks like UUNET is having problems. Hell my freind who works for worldcom/MCI said they are not allowed to see anything right now.

All I can say is hold out until, next week when they change over the servers

sorry papapark,

what is UUNET?

rudedog · 08-10-2002, 10:47 AM

UUnet is one of the US major back bone. This is what the internet runs on or part of it.

sprintNET is another major backbone

Out of curiousity... How could you tell it was having problems?

Look at my other post with the tracert info

see all those *'s , That means I'm loosing packets form those routers.

Those routers are from my game providers Internet host UUNET
