Forums Connection Issues connection speed issue

When connecting it will connect and work normally. However, the speed is abominable, with an average lag of 45 seconds for any action. Issuing commands takes this 45 seconds, but chatting is not lagged at all normally. This is on a very fast broadband connection. When using dialup, irc is much faster. Ive tried changing ports and several servers on different nets, it is not a slow server issue.

Anyone have any idea about this problem?

Chatting, unlike most commands, does not usually 'bounce' any information back to your client. While chatting may appear to be running full speed on your end it could be just as lagged as the commands you are issuing.

Perhaps a script or virus is flooding the server with data and causing the server to throttle all of your input. Use /debug -p @debug to see what you are sending to the server. It is a bit weird if you are testing on both dialup and broadband from the same computer (and to the same server) though.

Hope that helps
