i race online & i have roadrunner cable, my in game pings go from 55 to over 100, when it gets that high i get dropped i believe they call it warpping, should that happen if i have cable? i run a radeon 9550 agp card, 1.8 ghz with 512 ram, need help is it in my computer or roadrunner service? Been racin online about 4 yrs & just started having this problem. we run under rsClient racing server.

what does all this suppose to tell me? i don't know what any of this is or means. sry but i just like to race on here , computers are neat but i don't know what or how they work. Does this help u in seeing my problem or not???

well one cause of your problem could be network related. a trace route shows response times and the number of hops it takes to get to a server. In your case I don't see any real issues. normally in the first 12 if you had one that was unresponsive or had a really high response then you would know that would the issue. Specifically I don't see any issues. the hope around 12 goes from 11ms response to 50 ms response. high, but not enough to cause issues.

I don't see a ping of 100 as an issue. most games you should be fine upto a ping of 300 before warping gets to be an issue.

I would try defraging your hard drive, updating your video card drivers (http://ati.com/) and see if that makes any difference.\

you could reboot your pc. if you have a router you could update the firmware for it. I would also power cycle the router. powever off your cable modem for about 1min. and then power it back on. sometimes it could be just a packet overflow issue that causes it . power cycling all your equipment normally gets rid of it.
