I know there have been a lot of complaints about TT lately, and Nostar &amp; I are looking into that.&nbsp; In the meantime, I found this article about adjusting some networking settings in Windows that may make things a lot better, specifically for gaming.<br /><br />http://www.speedguide.net/read_articles.php?id=158<br /><br />Specifically the stuff about Nagle&#039;s algorithm is really relevant, because ZDaemon&#039;s packets are exceptionally small (we&#039;re talking about like, bytes at a time, certainly not kilobytes) - and normally your OS wants to stick small packets together in a bundle... which of course raises your latency like wow!<br /><br />I was getting pretty brutal packet loss (like 40% or something) until I installed this software called Traffic Shaper XP.&nbsp; Basically I have a 6Mbit/768Kbit connection, but AT&amp;T just overrated my line - it&#039;s really more like 3Mbit/512Kbit.&nbsp; The problem is that all the UDP networking stacks along the way are assuming they have a huge pipe to shoot data down, so they use it.&nbsp; Of course, the pipe itself just leaks packets like shit.&nbsp; So I limited my bandwidth using that software and I don&#039;t have any problems anymore (like 0% packet loss).<br /><br />The tradeoff is that my connection speed is lower.&nbsp; I discovered I don&#039;t really care if downloads take twice as long - I rarely maxed out my 6Mbit download anyway.&nbsp; I imagine not everyone is willing to make that trade though.<br /><br />Anyway, happy tweaking, and good luck!
