Brutus Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Are you playing in a field or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintsfan2500 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Are you playing in a field or something? no the lag issue was because i was using the wrong connection when i was playing another guy in the league and i thought i was using mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackandjose Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 You really need to solve that lag issue before you play any more guys cause our games were brutal and almost unplayable. I don't think you need a CD. You should already have the proper cables running between your router and modem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brutus Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 I'm sticking with my visual of this dude sitting out in a field w/ a joystick & a laptop trying to play some hockey wondering if the wind is going to change directions & cause a TV timeout.

saintsfan2500 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Hey plabax and brutus shut up, just so you know my computer automatically connects to my neighbors wifi so i would have to manually connect to it. You really need to solve that lag issue before you play any more guys cause our games were brutal and almost unplayable. I don't think you need a CD. You should already have the proper cables running between your router and modem. i was playing right by my router but i wasnt using my connection i was using my neighbors so the connection was bad because i was far away from their router Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to check.. against certain people my connection lags on and off and I can admit that it's not the greatest. But you are playing league games with the worst connection in '94 history. Your games make an Iceguy/Kgman game look sexy smooth! End of story just wire up Edited April 16, 2013 by PlabaxV2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaos Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 my cord says "put in CD-ROM before pluggind in cable" or something like that Ignore the warning. They are talking about the router most likely. If you are going to sit next to your router, you might as well use a cable. Plug it in to your laptop, and make sure you disable your wifi connection. If you don't know how to do that, the World Wide Web will help you find instructions on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brutus Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Most of us have found that the WIFI from your router gives ample speed. We are telling you to plug in the cable as long as you sit next to the router because even with smooth play & no lag, the games tend to "drop", and you end up having to replay them if you go with the WIFI connection instead of the cable plugged in. And, they tell you to disable the WIFI after you plug in, otherwise your computer will still use the WIFI connection, and still drop games even if you are "wired" Again, "wired" equals smooth play & no drops. WIFI from your router equals smooth play and some drops here & there. WIFI from your neighbor's house that somehow involve the trees & wind, bound for forum legend.

jer_33 Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 The best way to get games in is to hunt them down, advertising limited availability doesn't seem to be working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
