Connection problems

peut être que mon problème de déconnexion va être résolu.j' ai dans la maison un système de télésurveillance qui date d'avant l'adsl et qui n'est donc pas protégé par un filtre ,c' est maintenant chose faite.
après renseignement ils faisaient un test sur la ligne tous les soirs à 9h50, ce qui pourrait expliquer mes déconnexions en course.

I Cant believe it i was really enjoying my fight with Mario and Lost my connection again ...

I Dont know whats going on as in 10 years of simracing ive never had this problem before ...

I Had an awesome setup from Franck my team mate , i really liked the track
but its not looking good for the future until i get this sorted out ....

Carl, do you loose your internet connection completely, or only your connection to the rFactor-server?

Over the summer I had a similar problem. I lost my internet-connection from time to time (at last every two or three days i needed to reset the cable-modem). In my case it was a defect cable-modem. After changing the cable-modem the problem was solved.

Thx Thomas
I had a new cable modem earlier on this year supplied by Virginmedia as i had a problem with the R45 cable keep coming loose into the old modem but im thinking it maybe worth me changing back to the old modem and see if i still get disconnected ....

Im having a few connection problems but i can always get on the internet
but i notice it more when im racing with RFactor

Thx for the idea ...

For my connections problems I have perhaps find the solution. It seems that I've to change my multiplayer parameters to 56Kmodem. I might loose connection during race because of threshold problem. rFactor is very touchy if the upload speed goes under the limit you set in options. If so it declares "connection lost" even if it's not true.
Well I've still to try this solution in race though.

SORRY TO HIJACK THIS THREAD
Could we move some of this thread to the Paddock section as it maybe useful in future ....
Ludo you may be onto something here i have
2Mb Broadband which is soon to be upgraded Free of charge to 10Mb
but i had my connection set at 256k up in RFactor but its got me thinking ....

[1] What connection does everyone have here on HSO
[2] What do they set there connection speed at for Multiplayer in RFactor

Would be interesting to find out ........

Well I have a 24 MBps connection and my setup is custom with 10000kb of upload and download

Ok I merged posts about connection problems with this topic

THX Gui

Carl set it at 128kbs ingame,also have you opened the ports in the router for rFactor ?

Cheers Steve I dont use a router im hard wired up to the modem
Thought i would try 128k tonight fingers crossed ......

One thing i have noticed all the times i got disconnected ...
At the start of each game i get
"game syncronizing"
ive never noticed it do that before .....

I Have to say a Huge Thank You to Thomas who with a little help from the Google Gods
has cured my connection problem ......

I like a few other people installed the simraceway.com client and uninstalled it immediatly as it basically took over my
Rfactor i uninstalled it but it left a plugin in my plugins folder that got left behind .....

I Removed the SrwData dll and also the Client Telemetary dll files and managed to do
38 laps at Brands without Disconnection ........

So if you want to install simraceway.com i urge you to think twice ......
