I don't want to go around accusing this server's stability but is anyone else having the same problem?
Im running on a mac but I don't think that has anyfin to do with it.
Unless there's a player cap of 140 x_____x |

Sounds like a internet connection problem to me. I used to get disconnected on ro every 60 minutes exactly.
I can't remember how I fixed it but it had something to do with my wireless network I think. _________________ Characters-

If you are on a wireless network, it is distinctly possible that there is signal interference present. Moving closer to the wireless router or trying to remove any obstacles can resolve the issue.
If you are on a wired network, you might have a firewall or other program that may be interfering with a constant RO connection.
...I must ask. Which program are you using to run RO on your Mac? (Parallels, Bootcamp, etc.?) _________________

I think I resolved my issue by making my comp the master computer of the wireless network. Or something along those lines, if that makes sense. _________________ Characters-

You can do a continuous ping test (ping on UNIX/MAC, ping -t on windows) to your gateway (or you can use 4.2.2.2) and see what your packet loss is.
If you are getting disconnected constantly, you are likely suffering from some packet loss either on your network, or your ISP's network.
If you need more help, feel free to PM me. _________________ Support Reign Online by voting! |

here is something stupid but it does work on wireless.
Make sure you dont have any aluminum cans laying around, I know it sounds crazy but it can screw it up. |

I actually sorted the problem out by switching the router. So far no problems with this new one.
thanks everyone! |
