I started playing this game 5 years ago for a period of 2 years. I often got frustrated because a) the connection was poor and b) my computer overheated, but enjoyed it nonetheless.
I decide to have a 3-year break. I come here with a new 1.5k computer with brand new broadband as well with 35mbps wifi on my laptop... and I come on and I get ******* constant 'packet loss' errors and I get ditched by the client every 5 minutes or so.
Well, this game is unplayable for me. At least it was only -ú7 as opposed to -ú10... but seriously, what's happened to make the connection even worse than it was 3 years ago? |

I don't know what happened to your ISP since you last time played. I have WiFi and everything is ok.

I'd bring your problems up with the ISP and ask them what they're doing with your packages.

I run two clients on a 7 year old system with 2GB RAM over an translation layer (wine) in Linux which uses a ZFS raidZ which consumes probably half of that RAM already.
I don't think your problem has something to do with the EVE client. I have hardly ever seen a game that runs so smooth (recent DDOS incidents excluded).

I run this game off of a local internet provider, with a relatively cheap router. Eve works fine for me, barring obvious outages, and I typically run two or three clients at once.
But then I actually bother with things like port forwarding, network optimization, and such.

I can log in I just can't sustain more than 5 minutes online. So don't try to be funny it makes you look stupid. Also it is CCP's fault because I've tried it on two separate wifi networks and the same problem occurs. |

I hardly fi d it is the ips issue as most days mg net is fine and other days I get disconnect with socket closed every hour at a specific point is inc I have my first socket closed at 2035 I can expect my next socket closed at 2135.
And another reason I know it isn't isp, because it would affect other online games and even net browsing as the socket closed on eve often kicks the net connection offline as it reconnects and only happens when I'm on eve.
I also dont believe the garbage ccp tries to feed us about our data getting lost and that its not ddos/ other attacks Kinda like the alien guy meme

Umm, I'm afraid it *is* your internet that is bad. CCP isn't singling you out.
Somewhere between your laptop and the on-ramps to the internet superhighway of the future, someone with about your level of networking expertise seems to be mismanaging things and causing your issue.
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all.

1) is it just eve or when yoru client drops do you have internet to say facebook or yahoo or something?
That will help determin the issue.
A little story:
When my wife and I moved into my in laws house to help out my mother in law (RIP) we upgraded there ****** 1.2mb dsl to 40mb cable from Comcast. had issues of random d/c's for a few months then ordered a new modem... issues got worse. But I ignored it. One night I was playing star craft 2 and my mother in law was on net flix and the wife was playing a facebook game when all three of us disconnected. So I called Comcast and after getting a small run around, finally got the issue corrected, they had not added my new modem to the network, so it would occasionally drop. The things that took the brunt the most was eve and Netflix, facebook would seem to lag a bit then move past after a few seconds. So odds are the issue is your isp.

It clearly is, because CCP admit they have 'more sensitive than usual networks' which is why I can still operate online while I suffer from packet losses. I want CCP to sort this out, no other MMO I know of has this issue. And even then when I played 3 years ago my connection was fine.

EVE doesn't do well if there's heavy or demanding network traffic while it's running. If you're running torrents (especially), streaming, or something similar, EVE will complain about closed sockets all the time.
People here are chuckling about wifi, but not only do I run EVE just fine over WiFi to a DSL connection, but when a heavy storm took that down last year I ran it just fine over a WiFi tether to a 3G phone. Absolute bandwidth isn't the issue. EVE doesn't take up much. It just doesn't like to share, and it doesn't like to wait very long at all for a response.

does it maybe frighten you to know that connections vary from place to place? EVE's connection isn't the same everywhere, and why should I have to mess with my ISP/router when it's clearly CCP's 'fragile network'. |

If CCP tell you their software is sensitive to packet loss, and you admit your network has packet loss, why is it CCP's problem?
And what is this about 3 years ago your connection was fine? Your OP said that your connection was bad back then too.
Seriously - the problem is either on your end or your ISP's end. CCP may be able to help you track it down, but it still won't be anything they can fix for you.

If you're using BT, it's them. Someone ingame keeps whinging about packet loss and apparently spent hours on the phone squealing at them recently with no result. You'll get more helpful responses in Issues & Workarounds btw, no point having a tantrum in General Drama.

If you really have tried it on two seperate wifi networks, the next question, have you tried it on a starbux or mcdonalds wifi network? (so its a different isp) wifi is really bad when it comes to packet loss, if you lose too many packets you will get dropped, YOU losing the packets, not CCP background internet activity, torrents, regular downloads, audio/video streaming, will all increase the chance of dropped packets.
my recommendation, try pluging in the lan cable and seeing if you still get dropped, if you still get dropped you will have ruled out that it is your wifi, if you stop being droped then its your wifi
next step assuming you are still being dropped would be to test it on a seperate isp, maybe go over to a friends house - if its happening on multiple ISPs then it might really be CCPs fault (chances are its the internet not CCP)
This problem used to happen to me back when I played everquest, it even happened when I played a free WoW trial - solution for me, it was my lan card drivers, I had an "off" brand lan-card and once I installed compatible "on" brand drivers I stopped dropping, took a closer look, and the dropped packet policies for the two drivers were different, the off brand ignored dropped packets while the on brand retransmited dropped packets
please don't blame the problem on ccp, if it was ccp we would all be suffering from this problem, and even then it would be more likely to be an internet problem in general or a ddos than for it to be ccp |
