Help, any Techs out there?

Post by Scraper-Pac »

I have been playing for the last few weeks and I never "lag", but when I do I freeze and it seems its only me as I have died over 10 times of this, mostly in a dungeon.

Any ideas as to whats going on? Again, I never lag, only "lock up" or freeze mostly in a dungun for about 3-5secs, but thats all it takes to die.

Internet connection is fast, sometimes notice it online.

Could it be firewall/virtus/wireless? Anyway to troubleshoot?

Thanks in advance.

That happens to me to sometimes but not nearly as often as you it seems. I never even die from it really, but I'd just do as thorough a check as possible for viruses.

What OS do you have?

If it is wireless. I had a similar issue.

Took me forever to find out my microwave of all things was interfering with my signal, and freezing up my game when it was having trouble holding on to the connection.

In the General Tab of Razor, make sure "Use smart CPU usage reduction" is unchecked.

Most common causes are:

Wireless routers
Internet Scanning Software
Antivirus doing background scans
3rd party download software party running such as (limewire, or torrent software)

I've also seen first hand how fluorescent lights can drag down the signal of wireless adapters, so make sure it's not in close proximity to any of those kind of lights.
