Connection Lost while Macroing solved
Posted: Fri Oct 15, 2010 8:36 am
I've read a few threads about getting a "Connection Lost" only while macroing, you could play fine but after an hour or so of macroing you'd come back to a lost connection.
There is an option on most new network cards especially in laptops to "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" once I disabled that I haven't had a problems since.
For XP is don't have vista or windows 7 available at the moment right click on "My Computer" -> "Properties" Select the "Hardware" tab and click on the "Device Manager" button. Once the "Device Manager" windows comes up click the plus next to "Network adapters" there will be a few choices check them all and make sure "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" is not checked. Mine happened to be on the "Power Management" tab but that can varies with different devices.
Hope this will help someone who's getting frustrated with it... I know I was.
