Not long after the DDoS issues the other week.Wireless ISP network management encompasses all aspects of managing the wireless ISP. I've only noticed this problem since they did that backend maintenance. When I parse on the dummies or do a fake dual with someone, it's when those spikes happen, that the ability lag happens, including activation timers, but the ability doesn't activate. Is Pingplotter also showing the spikes for you?Īs for the jumps, it's upwards 30-50ms now and between 3-5 secs, with the occasional bigger gap.
But there is definetely something going on with this ability lag and it corresponds with the heartbeat effect.ĭo you have a theory because lots of people I've spoken to in game are also experiencing this. Yeah, I know about the Netstat part, I just wanted to simplify it for less tech orientated people. That document applies to pingplotter as well. The IP address reported by netstat wont actually be the server, but it will be the last visible network path. Icy i doubt a heartbeat type response from a router with an ICMP packet is related to delayed proc, see page 29 - 30 at this link, without knowing what processes they run in the background hence i my self am not overly concerned by a 19 -20 ms jump 3 seconds apart. I think if we can all provide some data via a program like ping plotter, that they may get onto it faster this time. Last time it took multiple threads of 50+ pages before they acknowledged there was an issue on their end. So if we can get enough people to provide data, they should hopefully have a look at it. I'd be interested to know how many of you are seeing this type of "heart beat" lag on the swtor servers. You can also record and save the data to send to Bioware to back up the observation.
KEY FOR PINGPLOTTER PRO TRIAL
But there is a free trial of it for 30 days. You guys won't need those to diagnose the issue. I use the professional, which costs a bit, but I need it in my work for the more advanced features. It's easy to use and there is a free version.
KEY FOR PINGPLOTTER PRO DOWNLOAD
If people want to check if it's their system or network, download ping plotter. On top of that, I run my own IT company and build/service computers, among other things, including network setups. If it was my system, the network issue would be on my end of the hop chain, not on Bioware's servers. It is a program that is used to determine networks issues. Its recommended that you clean your fan out once every 2-3 months because it can keep a steady performance.Īs I said in my post, I use a program called Ping Plotter. This "heart beat" like lag is unacceptable and makes pvp extremely hard when things don't go off or get interrupted by your artificial server lag?Ĭould be a few things, but i always say this Have you cleaned out your fan lately? SWTOR is a CPU demanding game and if your fan is dusty the CPU is overheating which can cause lagging. So Bio, what are you doing with the servers. None of these correspond correctly to ping plotter and the amount can be out by 50%.
Sometimes it says it's 80ms higher, other times stable. Most of those in-game lag readings are so wrong. Once again I'm running ping plotter in the background to see what is really happening. Sometimes it says it's steady, other times it's jumping 80ms above normal for me. In game, the server lag can be all over the place, but it isn't this heartbeat. I can see that it's not the other hops causing this. Sure, sometimes it's a little irregular, but looking at my graph over 15 min period, it's like looking at a cardio graph. Always 19-20ms jumps, nearly 3 seconds apart like a heart beat. So I start running Pingplotter and notice that the EA/Bio servers now seem to have this "heart beat" type lag spikes. I always use Netstat to get the right ip because the ip changes every time you relog into the game. I don't trust the built in Bio one because it's not accurate. I use Pingplotter to diagnose network issues, you can see every hop to the server to see where issues are. I've started getting activation lag "again" after 12 months of it being fix from last time, ie, server lag "seems" stable, everything else isn't laggy, but activations seem to lag or not activate at all.
