PPPd / PPPoE "lag" problem

I've been using arch linux for quite some time, but currently I'm trying to set up my modem in bridge mode.
It works fine, but there is one little issue. When I try to ping anything, the latency is perfect and there is no packet loss but it seems like fron time to time it just hangs. This hang whon't be noticed by the ping utility as a packet loss or greater latency, it will just stop for some time time and continue as if nothing has happened. It could be a sing that this is a software problem, and not my provider or the hardware.
I notice that too when acessing ,for example, any site fron my browser (even if the site has a 17ms latency!), sometimes it just hang on the loading for some time).
My machine has a nForce 4 chipset, the forcedeth module is loaded and the speedstream 4200 router/modem is directly connected to the eth0, the adresses are automaticaly assigned via DHCP and on Windows XP using RASPPPoE it works perfectly with no "lag".
This is my peer file:
#/etc/ppp/peers/brt
plugin rp-pppoe.so
# ro_pppoe_ac 'your ac name'
# rp_pppoe_service 'your service name'
# network interface
eth0
#login name
name "[email protected]"
usepeerdns
persist
#Uncomment this if you want to enable dial on demand
#demand
#idle 180
defaultroute
hide-password
noauth
If anyone has some clue on this, just share your idea!

the 4200 is a great little device, best router i could find for speed and stability when i was working at a residential service provider
i've never tried doing pppoe from the desktop, but have always had them behind linksys wrt54g routers (running dd-wrt) with no problems
you can get dd-wrt images that load in vmware, perhaps see if they're using any different setup in the config files of that project?
personally, i think NATting off the router (as you are now, as i am with dd-wrt) is better anyway, it provides network management, and a good level of security, so you don't have to worry about a firewall on your own LAN boxes

Horrible video skip / lag problem - once per second in all apps!

I built a new system last month (my first AMD) and I am having a really aggravating problem. In all games and all video playback I get an annoying skip once per second, every second. It affects sound during gameplay but not during movie or mp3 playback. It even happens with the visualization mode in Windows Media Player.
My system is as follows: MSI K8N Neo4-F, A64 3200+ venice core, MSI 6800GT 256MB PCI-E, two sticks of Corsair valueselect DDR400 512MB each, 500 watt PS, 160GB 7200 SATA HDD. Most recent NVIDIA drivers for everything. WinXP Pro with SP2 and all updates, DX9C. Nothing overclocked, all settings standard.
I have tried the following solutions:
1) BIOS upgrades, started with 1.4, installed 1.5, MSI tech support gave me 1.6b2 and I installed that. No luck with any of them.
2) Memory, installed per MSI directions, but I've tried all legal combinations, including one stick at a time. No change.
3) full format and reinstall of WinXP. No luck.
4) Switching between WinXP IDE drivers and NVidia drivers, with and without RAID drivers, No luck.
5) Removal of 6800GT PCI-E card and replacing with Ancient 8MB PCI Permedia2 video card. Problem still persists.
6) Disable onboard sound and LAN. No luck.
7) Running Fedora core 4 on second partition. Installed Nvidia video drivers, tried some games. THIS WORKS! No hitch, no skip, no nothing. Framerates are noticably slower but very stable. In WinXP I saw framerates bounce all over the place, from 230 FPS down to about 70 with one game. That same game on Linux ran smoothly at about 166 FPS with only occasional slight drops. The big FPS drops in Windows usually came right after one of the skips but didn't occure after every skip.
Right now I'm stumped. Linux uses totally different drivers for sound, LAN and SATA support. Some of those drivers don't fully use the Nforce4 chipset's features, maybe that's part of the difference.

Thanks TireSmoke:
I had found that sticky, but I took your advice and went thorugh it in detail last night. Lots of great info, fixes tweaks and tools, sadly none of them fixed my problem. The lag problem most people are reporting is not really like the wierd problem I am having. I have tried the recoommended fixes with ablsolutely no change in my system's behavior.
I am beginning to suspect a faulty motherboard component.
Russ_XP:
I think you are correct about fast writes. I googled the heck out of that last night and couldn't find any reference to enabling or disabling fast writes on PCI-E.
The drive is SATA-1. The Neo4-F is not SATA-2 enabled (there is a hack for it though). From memory I think it's a Western Digital WD1600-something, 7200 RPM dirve. I've tried it on both SATA buses and tried disabling the unused bus in BIOS.
I'm pretty sure I can dig up an old PATA drive somewhere and give that a try.
Gpalmer:
True enough, and I don't have these problems under Fedora. Sadly this is a cross-platform game development box, I need both XP and Fedora working.
Black_God:
Nope, this is a clean install. Although I wonder, could any of the built in XP update and security tools be causing this? I have disabled Windows firewall and virus protection monitoring.

Lag problem with JFileChooser

I have searched the archives and haven't found any useful information regarding the fact that creating a JFileChooser lags horribly on some systems...namely mine. I have tried running my own program and the FileChooserDemo on java versions 1.4.1_02, 1.4.1_06, 1.4.2_01-b06, and 1.5.0 beta and all of them have the INCREDIBLY slow lagging problem. I am running Win XP pro P3 800 386MB and it takes over 40 seconds to load the chooser. I have disabled all anti-virus software to no avail. I have run my program on a computer at my college which runs Win XP also and there it runs fine...so I am at a complete loss as to what could be wrong. If anyone has any insight into this problem please let me know!
thanks

Yeah...they talk a lot about theories of what the problem may be, but only offer a few solutions...none of which have helped me (loading the JFileChooser when app starts, and stopping anti-virus software). Thanks though.

Just installed iOS7 on iPhone 4. Huge typing lag problem now. Any fixes? Apple please fix asap.

I just installed iOS7 on my new iPhone 4. Huge typing lag problem now. Any fixes out there? How do I uninstall this update. The phone worked better without it. Don't even like the new layout and icon design.
Apple, please fix this now!!!

Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

I've been considering the Yosemite upgrade but especially after reading some of blue tooth lag problems, I'm wondering how to be able to go back to mountain lion.

i have been considering upgrading to Yosemite from Mountain Lion but especially after reading about some of the bluetooth lag problems, i would want to be able to return to my current OS, just in case and am unsure what steps to take.

Drive Partition and Format
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.

Preview lag problem on Premiere Pro CC 2014

Hi everything!
I have a big problem on Premiere, when I work on every type of file the Program monitor lag too much.
I can see one frame every few second!
But the audio work well...
It seems that the computer have not enough power to show the video! And I have not modified or applied effect or transition!
I have got a MacBook Pro Early 2011 with the AMD Radeon HD 6750M (1024 MB) with the OpenCL 1.2 Engine, 2,2 GHz Intel Core i7-2720QM Quad Core (With Multithreading to 8 Core), 16 GB 1666 MHz RAM, with a Magnetic Disc (No SSD). The Machintosh is equipped by OS X Yosemite, reinstalled last week to try to fix the problem.
Before installing the CC 2014 I used the CS6 for 2 years without problem.
In Project Settings i have active the Mercury Playback Engine, and the other settings are not changed!
Someone had the same problem? Or know how to resolve? Because is not easy to use in this condition!
Thank you very much, Andrea.

Hi!
Thank you for the answer!
My source footage is 1080 50p AVCHD (from Panasonic AC-AG160AEJ), but the problem is on every type of footage, because I tried with a 720 50p from a Canon EOS 6D and the ProRes 422 1080 25p of BlackMagic Production Camera 4K.
The problem doesn't change with the weight of the footage, with all of the footage type the problem is the same.
I use the original 7200rpm 750GB hard disk connected with the SATA interface. I think that is SATA 3 at 6 Gbit/s.
I have tried with all playback resolution possible (Full, 1/4 and 1/8) but the problem doesn't change, even if I change the resolution.
Unfortunately with the format of last week I lost the CS6...
I'm writing from Italy and I use the PAL standard!
I attach a video of the problem and a picture of my graphic card, if they are usefull!

What zoom level are you brushing at and what kind of brush are you using. I find a lot of lag when the document has a large number of pixels and you zoom out like fit on screen. Additional lag introduced when wet mixer brush are used a large tip size increase the lag even more.
Remember Photoshop was designed to be an image editor. Paint is a nice addition but not Photoshop main gold. If you want to paint I'm sure a program designed to be a paint program would perform better and have more painters features. A paint pint program may paint on the scaled down image and apply the paint to the large document in the background where is look like Photoshop Paint on the large document layer then scale the results down to the zoom out view for there is no lag in Photoshop when you paint at the 100% or higher view.

Lagging Problems

I've been experiencing these lagging problems when I'm recording to my laptop. It freezes then starts up again and repeats itself. So the results are the same when I play it back. I’ve been recording from a canon XL2 through a 4pin to 4pin firewire. Below are my specs to my laptop which I believe should be way more then sufficient to run this program. Not to mention this is a brand spanking new laptop purchased like a week ago. The only program that I loaded on this is Premiere Pro CS4 and Onlocation CS4. And have only used onlocation on it so far.

Having lagging problems with YouTube videos, it simply takes so long for the red bar to completely load and the videos frequently pause and take too long to restart playing again.

I have been having lagging problems with YouTube videos for a number of months now. It simply takes so long for the red bar to completely load and the videos frequently pause and take too long to restart playing again. Even with little 2 and 3 minute videos.
I have a fast computer and my webpages load really, really fast. I have FireFox 4 browser and a Vista Home Premium 64-bit OS. So I don't have a slow computer or web browser. But these slow YouTube vids take way too long to load for some reason.
Does anyone have any idea how I can speed up YouTube?

Hi
The forums are customer to customer in the first instance, Only the mods (BT) will ask for personal information through a email link. Would you mind posting your Hub stats & BT speed test results this will help all with diagnosis-
To post the full stats from your router
for home hub - 192.168.1.254
Navigate to ADSL Settings or use the A-Z at the top right
Click on More Details and then post the results.
Run BT speed tester and post the results from http://speedtester.bt.com/
If possible it would be best to connect to the BT master socket this will rule out any telephone/broadband extension wiring also consider the housing of the hub/router as anything electrical can cause problems as these are your responsibility, if these are found to be the case Openreach (engineer) will charge BT Broadband, which will be passed onto you, around £130.00.
Noisy line! When making telephone calls, if so this is not good for your broadband, you can check-
Quite line test dial 17070 option 2 and listen - should hear nothing best done with old type analogue phone digital (dect) will do but may have slight hiss If you hear noise- crackling pops etc, report it as a noisy line on your phone, don’t mention broadband, Bt Faults on 151.
As for your FTTC its available in some areas between 40% & 80% of customers in enabled areas can receive it!

Having lag problems on the XBOX 360 - connecting to WRT160N wireless router.

Having lag problems when playing on the XBOX 360(wireless connection) after we installed our new WRT160N wireless router. Looking for ideals on how to fix this performance problem?
Cable Conpany: Comcast
Modem Model: zoom
Wireless Router Model: Linksys WRT160N

A few more thoughts:
- Changing the channel settings does NOT achieve anything. I manually tried every setting with no success.
- Changing the encryption settings did not help. I tried "open", WEP and WPA and none of them work.
- Even when this problem shows up, the xbox360 wireless adapter successfully finds and associates with the wireless network. It even manages to read data from the network - it just does it VERY SLOWLY and disconnects often. This causes extreme lag in xbox live games, which shows up as unpredictable play and disconnects from games.
- The fact that G-only mode works fine pretty much proves that this problem can be fixed with a firmware change. The xbox360 wireless adapter and the WRT160N can definately talk to each other using 802.11g successfully so there must be some issue with negotiating the correct version of 802.11x.
- I've considered trying a third-party firmware, such as DD-WRT to see if this fixes the problem. Has anyone tried this and if so what happened?
If you are seeing this problem, please reply to this thread and say so. If enough people respond perhaps Linksys will fix the problem. Even if you're not registered with this board, registering is very quick and easy so don't let that deter you.
Thanks

Could not find a PPPoE server problem.

I have been running my G4 plugged into a netgear ethernet hub for quite some time to get online. I also have a wireless router connected to it on which I run my windows laptops. I never had a problem having them all online at one time. I didn't use my G4 for a few weeks, when I turned it back on and tried to get online, I got the "could not find a PPPoE server" message. If I unplug the ethernet cable from the hub and plug it directly to the DSL modem, it connects with no problem, plug it back into the hub and it won't connect. I swapped the hub for a Linksys 5 port ethernet 10/100 switch. Same thing happens and I get the same message, but it will not get online if any of the PCs are online, if I shut the PCs down then the mac gets online, but if I have the mac online then the PCs will not connect. I have been on the phone with the drones from earthlink and they have been useless. If you tell them that you are running any kind of routing device the will not help you at all. I am at a loss as to how to get around this, like I said, it was all working fine before. I am not sure if the problem is at my end or if earthlink did something at their end. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do you need to "spoof" the MAC address of the router or hub? some ISPs actually read and register the hardware MAC address of the first two devices downlinked. Modem and router, modem and G4, etc.
I stopped using a hub once switches got inexpensive and routers came with switch capability. Now have an all in one modem + router/switch which simplifies setup, wires, and only one device to worry about (but have backup modem and router etc from before in case anything should happen).
Possible that something happened. Or that your router needs to be reset. Or that a storm did something while you were gone, though you seem to have swapped devices enough to rule that part out. Or a bad cat5 cable that a mouse or cat gnawed on.
My guess is set the Linksys to the same MAC address of the hub you were using or call Earthlink again (hard I know) and have them re-authenticate the new router's MAC address.
Do you have a surge protector in front of your modem? and again an RJ45 filter before it goes out to your router or G4? I put all my equipment on APC UPS and going through surge and line protection to protect ethernet ports and equipment.

Lagging problems when upgrading from 10.6 to 10.6.8

I've been running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on my MacBook Pro (approx 6 years old - Intel core 2 duo, 2.26 GHz processor w/ 4 GB ram). I had an issue recently where it would hang up (spinning wheel) for 10-15 seconds every minute or two. Eventually it "died" and wouldn't boot again. I went through all the trouble shooting options I could find, but ended up just re-installing OS X 10.6 from my boot CD. It worked and ran fine again, so I did the software update to 10.6.8, but once I did that I encountered the "hanging up" problem again. So I went back to 10.6 once again and it's working fine. The problem is that most of the software on my computer needs 10.6.8 to run (for example, I use my laptop to DJ and my Serato software loads up on 10.6, but it doesn't register when I plug the USB into my mixer).
I've run Activity Monitor to when I'm running 10.6.8 to see if anything is out of the ordinary there and everything looks fine. I've also run Disk Utility to verify/repair and everything is fine there as well.
It doesn't seem like a hardware problem to me since it runs fine on 10.6, but I'm also far from an expert when it comes to this stuff. If anyone has any suggestions/ideas on what may be causing this problem I'd be very appreciative - thanks!

I updated back to 10.6.8 so now it's lagging again, but I ran EtreCheck and this is what it gave me:

Photoshop CS4 Lag Problems

Hi All,
I'm having a frustrating problem.
I purchased the 17", 2.8GHz, 500gb 7200rpm, 4gb Mac (no problems with this drive after having it exchanged). This is my first Mac and I was excited about receiving a powerful machine compared to my 2-year-old windows based machine.
I use CS4 extensively, mainly Photoshop and InDesign and in Photoshop, I'm noticing that the performance isn't great at all - in fact it's worse than my windows machine. When I drag a marquee window I find that progress across the page is slow, when I move items by using the arrow keys on the keyboard I can hold the arrow down for seconds then let go and watch the object move as if by itself.
I'm really not used to performance of this type in CS4 and it hinders the speed at which I can work.
I have tried allocating the maximum amount of ram (in this case 3gb due to the 32-bit limit) and have altered the number of cache levels and tested. None of these solutions is helping.
At the moment I have 115gb free on the 465gb hard drive but don't expect that that should be the problem.
Is anyone else having similar problems and, if so, have you managed to solve them?
The problem doesn't occur in other CS4 programs such as InDesign or Illustrator. I have uninstalled the Photoshop component and reinstalled but this hasn't helped.
Many thanks in advance.

You are not the first one to post a CS4 Lag issue on the net - just to tell you that you're not alone
It could be a Graphics Card problem, that probably will be solved eventually during upcoming upgrades - but I don't know exactly what kind of card in in your machine, but from your description it sounds like you bought a MacbookPro, which will probably have a NVDIA Geforce 9400 card mountet.
Here's a list of testet card and link to driver updates.

Hope you might solve the problem that way - now that you've already tried resetting your preferences - else you could always hope for a better suggestion from someone else on the thread,
Torben.
PS: You could try to turn of the Enable OpenGL Drawing in Performance section of preferences.

Lagging problem when connected to a Samsung Central Station 23"

Hi,
I bought myself a Macbook Air(Summer, 2011 Edition) about 3 months ago roughly,
and I also bought myself a Samsung Central Station 23" which works just as a thunderbolt or cinema display but much cheaper and much elegant.
It also sends audio signal as well as usb datas when connected to a pc or a mac.
Before buying this monitor, I searched for any history or experience regarding performance problem when hooked upto an external monitor the other users had,
and while some people say there are no such problems with new intel i core series which includes much advanced graphic core and much faster processor,
many people said they have experienced performance problems to some dregree as well.
Now that I seem to have this huge problem of lagging with my MBA when connected to Samsung Central Station,
I still have no idea why it is happening, nor how to fix the problem.
I use my Macbook Air connected to a Samsung Central Station 23" and it runs 1080P Full HD resoultion, which isn't that big deal to incur performance decline.
I shut my MBA screen when I use the external monitor, so there isn't much thing to interfere with the performance.
I don't know about other people who use an external monitor, but my central station monitor works on Full HD resolution only when i close my MBA screen or connect it as a dual screen. If the screen is left open, it runs with the same resolution as the macbook air.
when I start sensing decline in frame I always had my MBA open to lower the resolution which seemed to work fine again.
But these days,even when it's disconnected from the monitor it seems to have problem and the only way to bring it to the normal condition is to restart it.
when connected to the monitor It's even hard to open few tabs on Safari and play a web flash game.
It lags so hard I cannot even turn to other screen on mission control or swith to other browser tab without making it delay for a second.
I checked CPU and RAM resources when it started lagging, but almost 90% of the CPU resources was idle and more than 500MB of RAM was free.
After restarting the computer CPU remained the same, but more than 2G of RAM was now free.
Im guessing it has something to do with GPU performance but not sure how to fix the problem.
Do you think it's my Macbook Air's hardware problem or is it the monitor? or something else?

I have the same issue. Were you able to find a resolution for this issue?
