GPL VROC problem

When I join a race, GPL starts, I choose a IP from the address book but then comes some kindof of timeout while synchronizing error, and i cannot join anymore, What do I do wrong?? DOK

For your information : I am using Windows 98, 56k6 modem, PII 400 mhz 128 SDRAM DOK >When I join a race, GPL starts, I choose a IP from the address book >but then comes some kindof of timeout while synchronizing error, and i >cannot join anymore, What do I do wrong?? >DOK

Can I check whether my ping time is too high?? Can that be of any use? DOK

% Can I check whether my ping time is too high?? Can that be of any use? It maybe more related to a "slow" link in your connection to the server. In Windows open a DOS box and run the "ping" command ("ping /?" will give you command options). Then you may want to run "tracert" ("/?" will also give you command options. When you "join" via VROC, make note of the IP address in the address book box and then exit GPL and run the above commands. Excessively high ping rates could cause this, but more than likely "timeouts" will usually cause this. I connection is made, but then packets are lost and the connection times out. This is where tracert can help determine whether the cause is with our ISP or the Internet cloud they are connected to. % >See the new troubleshooting guide on VROC. % > % >Alison % > % > % >>For your information : I am using Windows 98, 56k6 modem, PII 400 mhz % >>128 SDRAM % >> % >>DOK % >> % >> % >> % >> % >> % >>>When I join a race, GPL starts, I choose a IP from the address book % >>>but then comes some kindof of timeout while synchronizing error, and i % >>>cannot join anymore, What do I do wrong?? % >>> % >>>DOK % > % > % >Alison % > % >Remove the spam blocker NOSPAM to email me. % >http://www.nh.ultranet.com/~alison -- **************************** Michael E.
