Reducing lag and ping with UOSA - Xpost from server help

Post by Pehiko »

I read a lot of post about lag and bad ping and i have been using a tool that have been around for a couple of years in the gaming community (specially for game like SW:TOR, World of Warcraft etc) and i think that sharing this tool would help the UOSA Community.

It's called Leatrix Latency Fix.

There is over 5Millions download of the fix in the last 3 year and been approved and promoted by some of the best gaming website related to mmo/online gaming.

It's not a software that you need to run every boot or that run in the memory its simply a registry fix for the TCP protocol that change the way it queue and acknowledge the bundling process. (There is a walkthrough on how to do it directly by hand in the registry but they build the script to make it easier.)

This is the download link:

And this is the full FAQ (How it work, what it does etc):

(This helped me reduce my ping by 40% on UOSA)

The other thing it might be worth sharing is that some ISP are throttling MMO. Usually it's because they use crappy P2P detection system and the low but constant bandwidth (download/upload at the same time) confuse game with P2P.

Here is an example of this:

If you have issue with desynch and lag to do a simple test to see if your internet provider is slowing down your game data on purpose at http://measurementlab.net/measurement-lab-tools#tool2 Glasnost is the best one. BTW measurementlab is own by google (in case you guys are unsafe visiting unknown website).

Hope it Help!
