2 months ago, LAG started when i was on Gazica. One POD after the other, so i went to the lower systems and even there i'm a POD very often. Mantis are moving and when i shoot them, the result stay away for 5 to 10 sec. without loosing my connection. Imagine that you kill 5-6 harvs when this happens ... POD.

So, i checked the whole way to the Solaria server. (Wow ... 7234.16 Km away)

With a free prog. called 'TCPView' i saw the IP address of the solaria server : 184.107.41.111

With the command 'Tracert' i can see the complete route to the server:

1 3 ms 2 ms 2 ms livebox.home [x.x.x.x] (x because i don't want hackers on my PC)
2 13 ms 12 ms 11 ms 91-86-1-32-adsl.mobistar.be [x.x.x.x]
3 14 ms 13 ms 16 ms x.x.x.x
4 14 ms 13 ms 16 ms x.x.x.x
5 15 ms 14 ms 14 ms gi12-0-0.brucr1.Brussels.opentransit.net [193.251.255.217]
6 21 ms 19 ms 19 ms tengige0-10-1-0.lontr1.London.opentransit.net [193.251.240.218]
7 19 ms 19 ms 19 ms level3-1.GW.opentransit.net [193.251.248.46]

11 90 ms 88 ms 88 ms ae-92-92.ebr2.NewYork1.Level3.net [4.69.148.45]
12 99 ms 99 ms 98 ms ae-5-5.car1.Montreal2.Level3.net [4.69.141.5]
13 105 ms * 115 ms te6-2.cl-core05.level3.mtl.iweb.com [4.59.176.10]
14 99 ms 99 ms 98 ms te8-1.v0710.hd-core02.mtl.iweb.com [67.205.127.133]
15 * 98 ms 99 ms 184.107.41.111

When i do now a constant 'ping' to all these addresses, line 13 gives a lot time-outs -> that's where the problem is!

So, who can solve this? Not Splitscreen, not my internet provider.

With 'Whois' at cqcouter.com i did a lookup for geographic and companie information.
The IP address on line 13 belongs to 'Level 3 Communications' in Montreal (Canada) and is hosted by Iweb.com.

When i opened a case by Iweb.com, they cannot help me because i'm no cliënt of them :-((
When i opened a case by Level 3 Communications, they cannot help because i'm no cliënt of them :-(((

So i'm out of ideas now to get my problem solved. Anyone an idea?

A positive note is that i can only grind now at lower systems that brings me a lot of cry and the nr1 place on the ranking board :)

You will not get any response from them as they are what is called a BackBone Provider. It is just 1 of many routing points (as you saw) The next hop after that is the DC Entry point then the server, Never send a constant ping to an DC or Backbone point as it can be considered an attempted DOS Attack.

Other than that you have showed the Players that it is not always Splitscreen that can cause the lag due to the may points between their PC & the Host Server
