Re: Packet Loss / Drop Outs

Ok.  Can you tolerate that for a bit while we investigate please.

Re: Packet Loss / Drop Outs

Sure, no problem.

If it helps, I always notice this packet loss when certain events occur, such as: A new round begins, you see an enemy, the bomb explodes. (This on CS:GO, of course.

 

Thanks.

Re: Packet Loss / Drop Outs

Have another game now and let us know if it's any different.

@Kelly

Is a reboot required? I have been in a game all this time.

Thanks.

Re: Packet Loss / Drop Outs

No, the change is just in the background.  No improvement I take it?

Do you know your server IP?

Re: Packet Loss / Drop Outs

Unfortunately Valve are really secretive with the IP address, I can provide the following:

Connected to =[A:1:1503666187:10398]:0
hostname: Valve CS:GO EU West Server (srcds025.138.25)
version : 1.36.4.4 secure
os : Linux

Their west server is luxembourg which could be any of these:

 

"relay_addresses": [
  "146.66.154.20:27015-27052",
  "146.66.154.21:27015-27052",
  "146.66.154.22:27015-27052",
  "146.66.154.23:27015-27052"

Hi @MikeJ123

 

Thanks for the patience.  We've a number of interfaces that your traffic is running over and although we can't *see* a particular issue, we are by the process of elimination disabling them one at a time to see if it improves your gaming.

 

We've just disabled another interface.  How is it now?

Re: Packet Loss / Drop Outs

Any change?

 

When you say "packet loss" are you seeing that in MTRs? Or is there something in Counterstrike telling you? (Been years since I played it!)

Re: Packet Loss / Drop Outs

This is something CS as per net_graph (a console command) and is also very visible due to movements being off, sounds being off etc.

Currently testing again now to see if there's any improvement.

 

Thanks.

Re: Packet Loss / Drop Outs

@Kelly

Issue is still present, I have also attached an image which may help you understand. This happened immediately after killing somebody.

Thanks.

Re: Packet Loss / Drop Outs

We've exhausted that line of testing.  There is another set of interfaces we can test, but that requires a bit more planning.

In the meantime I've given you a static IP which seemed to fix the issue before.  Please reboot your router and confirm that the packet loss has gone please?

Once we've got a plan together for the next test, we'll be in contact on this thread if that's ok?  We'd like to get to the bottom of this.

 

FYI: @Gandalf

Re: Packet Loss / Drop Outs

Sure, good to hear.

 

I'll give it a reboot right now and join the same server and see if the issue is still present.

Thanks for your help guys - @Kelly @Gandalf @EmilyD
