LPB issues on servers?

[old.-=MN=-Terra]

Hmm, I am on a cable modem and normally get a ping of 30 on your servers, however today for a praccy session I got a ping of 450.

So reverted back to my old 56k and got a ping of 150. So the server was ok...but it wasnt with my cable modem?

It wasnt the modem that had the fault either, because I logged into other servers (Gamesinferno,Jolt etc) and I got my ping of 30.

Anything similar happened to anyone else? Or are Barrysworld capping their servers so lpb's like myself can't play

Hi m8,

What you'll probably find is that the routing of your packets would have been broken, meaning that you latency and ping would have gone straight down the toilet. There was some kind of outage at NTL recently, as a number of =BC= players ended up with 350 pings during a recent clarwar with DW.

Cable is a godsend, but it's not totally stable at the moment.
