Lowering ping!

Sunstrider · 11-16-2009, 06:59 PM

So I've recently used a program that reduced my ping by quite a significant amount and figured it would be good to share. Initially made for WoW, it can be used for any game. It takes a few seconds to install, and lowered my ping by about 100ms on average. A lower ping = less communication between your client and the servers = faster reactions. PvP oriented players will tell you this is invaluable since it can be the deciding factor in a fight.

I've used Smoothping and Lowerping in the past in WoW, and they didn't have as much effect as this one has. Plus, once you install this one, it's virtually invisible unlike some of the others.

This is not really even a program as more of something that changes settings in your registry. It just changes it from sending two packets and then recieving one to sending one and getting one back. This was set up so there are less errors, but nearly double the time for you to get responce back from the server. Good stuff to lower lag.

I used gamepath which is the same thing as smoothping, and it's nice but not worth paying something else to play a game I'm already paying for.
