I'm trying to figure out a problem when i start a game that uses DirectX.
The game allows for up to 10 people, however if i'm the host, whenever i
have more then 4 people at the start, as soon as i launch the game 6 of the
players will get dropped. When i started having this problem the only thing
that changed was the "cable && cable modem" for the "wireless && cable
modem". With the cable from the PC to the cable modem i could host 10
people with no problem.
As for hosting, yes i'm hosting behind the firewall, also one other point of
interest, i also tried putting the machine in the DMZ and there was no
change in behavior, that being no more than 4 people may connect at the same
time.
My configuration is: WinXp Pro (Sp1 w/all know hotfixes), Wireless mode is
128-bit encryption, and only the 'g' mode (not mixed). I've also run with
no encryption, thinking that might have been adding some latency and causing
a problem.
Here is the component && versions.
Broadband Network Utility software 2.0.0.638
Wireless PCI Adapter (MN-730) driver 3.20.26.0
Wireless Base Station (MN-700) boot firmware 2.0.8.333
Wireless Base Station (MN-700) runtime firmware 2.0.8.333
Anyway any assistance or pointers you could give me would be great.
