Getting booted N4 Multiplayer...

Okay guys, what am I missing. I havent been on the N4 muliplayer in about a month, went on this past wednesday and today (Sunday) and everytime I get into a race I only get about 1 minute of practice in before being booted back to the main chat room. Any help would be apreciated. System p3 600 dell 256 ram sblive sound geforce 256 all the updated patches Thanks Michael Loos Gasoline Alley...The Fastest Show In Radio!

What's your ping like ? What network connection do you have ? If you have a little bit unstable network connection you might get booted on servers with a latency limit. Olav

pings are generally excellent. 80-120. I have a cable connection that is normally rock solid. Michael Loos Gasoline Alley...The Fastest Show In Radio! Nationwide Saturdays at 10:00 pm Eastern - 7:00 pm Pacific Find your local affiliate at www.GasolineAlleyOnline.net

happened to me as well twice yesterday. Once, the server had obviously shut down (it disappeared from the list). The other one I can't explain. AFAIR it was from Sears at Guy Wilson's server, to whom I usually have rock solid connects. Achim "Race1530" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Okay guys, what am I missing.

Michael, The net does seem a bit flaky the last week maybe this is the problem. http://slashdot.org/articles/01/08/05/0433219.shtml Regards, Dave "Race1530" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Okay guys, what am I missing.

Get Ready guys. I don't know how long most of everybody here has been gaming online, but the hackers have already caused numerous problems with online gaming servers. Here are some examples that I have seen: Won.net Nascar 3 league servers. guys modifying the air temp to 500 degrees, someone racing the pace car, wreakers using a car skin switcher so no one can take him out, wreakers re-entering race after being ejected, pole position without even qualifying, pole position "Stealing", etc. And if anybody has ever played on the old Mplayer servers and had an evening ruined by "Silver Mod" hack, "Room Ghost", "Room Lock/Killer" etc. Need For Speed High Stakes & Porsche Unleashed are breeding grounds for these Jokers. So get ready, If Papy clamps down on these idiots, it just ups the ladder and challenge for them to get into the servers and cause havoc. Just some of my observations of online gaming.

Well, for whatever reason, it stopped when I released, then renewed my Linksys ip address. Oh hell, who knows why sometimes. Michael Loos Gasoline Alley...The Fastest Show In Radio! Nationwide Saturdays at 10:00 pm Eastern - 7:00 pm Pacific Find your local affiliate at www.GasolineAlleyOnline.net
