These are the results of a test I ran, but I don't know how to solve the problem. The game is unplayable because of the amount of packet loss. I know it is an issue of connection between the game and my router, so should I get a new router if mine is old?
The router I would imagine to be okay for the first bit, but for the sake of things, reboot the router and also try giving your ONT a reboot by unplugging it from AC power and then disconnecting the battery. Re-connect it after 30 seconds by connecting the battery and then plugging it back into AC power.
Also, see if the packet loss takes place during specific times of the day. If your router has a WAN connection over Coax (rather than an Ethernet connection) to your ONT, also consider checking your MoCa speeds based on this FAQ. Poor MoCa speeds can suggest shoddy coaxial causing some issues, too: https://secure.dslreports.com/faq/verizonfios/3.2_MOCA#16569

For the past few days I've been experiencing severe lag while playing an online game. The ping is normal, but the game stops responding or its response is delayed to such an extent that it's impossible to continue playing. My friend attributed the problem to the packet loss that Verizon customers have been experiencing. I'm curious as to when this issue will be resolved, as it's extremely annoying and has prompted me to consider switching to a different internet service provider.
Step one: Visit http://www.giganews.com/line_info.html and post up the Traceroute the page shows, if you wish. Be aware that your non-bogan public IP Address will show up. It might shown up as the final hop (bottom-most line of the trace) might contain a hop with your IP address in it. Either remove that line or show only the first two octets. What I'm looking for is a line that mentions "ERX" in it's name towards the end. If for some reason the trace does not complete (two lines full of Stars), keep the trace route intact.
For example this what I saw when I was using Verizon
news.giganews.com
traceroute to 71.242.*.* (71.242.*.*), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets

Step two: Can you provide the Transceiver Statistics from your modem?
#3 If you don't know how to get that info:
a) What is the brand and model of your modem?
b) If you have a RJ-45 WAN port router connected to it: What is the brand and model of the RJ-45 WAN port router?
#4 If you have a RJ-45 WAN port router connected to the modem, even if you know how to get the Transceiver Statistics from the modem: What is the brand and model of the RJ-45 WAN port router?

Over the past week I've been getting massive problems when gaming online with iRacing. I get halfway through a race and then I get kicked due to packet loss.
I did some ping tests and sure enough im losing between 2-5% of the total packets that were sent. This has made online gaming nearly impossible.
Any help to fix this problem would be greatly appreciatedHi Jammydogerman,
Welcome to the forum and thanks for posting. Is the problem affecting any other part of the connection? Can you run a speed test at www.speedtester.bt.com and post the results? Can you also run a tracert and post the results of that as well? That will give us an idea of what’s going on.
Cheers
David

Please help!
Try pressing the reset button on the back of controller.

No sound on most games--please help!
Hi,
I am having some kind of problem with my sound on my iMac. I don't know what caused it, or if I did something wrong myself, but here is the problem...
On most--but not all, of my games...there is no sound. Some games DO have sound (not many), some games have sound only on an opening screen & then have no sound afterwards, and a few won't load at all (I get a pop-up notice saying there is some sort of error w/ the sound (I forget the exact wording) and the game will not load).
I am pretty sure that I'm having no hardware problems as all the chips, drives & everything else--passed all the tests on "Tech Tool Deluxe" and there is no problem with the sound on any other type of app other than games (iTunes, Quicktime, Dvd Player, etc.--sound works fine).
I have run permissions repair on Disk Utility (nothing came up to be repaired BTW) and I have restarted (including completly shutting down--and pulling the power cord out of the wall), and I have tried reinstalling several games (the problem does not seem to be with the games...they have exactly the same problem after reinstall. That makes me think the problem is w/ OSX software that communicates the sound data between the game software and the speakers or whatnot).
I hope somebody out there can advise me on what best to do.
~Just FYI...my entire disc is cloned to an ext. HD using "SuperDuper" (I'm a bit worried that the problem could be cloned to the HD along w/ everything else though). I never had to do a system restore or anything like that, but I should be able to do one if it is necessary.
Please help! ~Thanx a lot!¡¡¡Dude It freaking worked/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png I am SOOO stoked/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png That was so easy...I don't believe it.

Palm TX - window XP - Loss all contact -- Please help!
7/23/09 - sync error. all my 10 years of contact gone!
click on hot sync see record that 7/20/09 hot sync went OK.
Is there a way to go back to 7/20/09? System restore ?
What can I do to get my contact back? Pleaseeeeeeeeeee
Do I need to manually back up data myself? I should have done this once a month to avoid this problem in the first place.
This support site is huge, can somebody send me down the right path at least.
Downloaded Palm 6.2 is not helping.
Please tell me how to sync with palm over ride desk top. seen it but do not remember where and how. I have some old contacts from 2007 on handheld for some unknow reason, if I can not go back to 7/20/09 may be 2007 is OK for now. ( I can not set all those contacts to catagories either, they all goes to "unfile")
Prior to contact went crazy, I can not set/schedule my task to future date. if I do it went away to plam heaven.
Message Edited by imjustagirl on 08-07-2009 01:31 PMYou can recover the data from your user folder provided you have only sync'ed once with the PC when you discovered the data missing. When you sync to the PC there are files created for each PIM category in your user folder. For Example; datebook.dat or datebook (Depending on the version of Palm Desktop) and datebook.bak. Using 6.2 the file names are .mdb and mdb.bak. For 6.2, the files are located in the username folder in PalmOSdesktop in my documents.
The files are named .dat and .bak. When you sync, the current data is stored in .dat. The next time you sync the data in the .dat file is copied to the .bak file. You can rename the .dat to .old. then rename the .bak to .dat. If the data in the .bak file is intact, it will now be in palm desktop when you reopen Palm desktop. I have included a link to show you how to find the userfolder on the PC.

Here is another link regarding data loss;
http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=39503
The best way to backup your data is to use the export feature in Palm Desktop. Make a new folder on the PC desktop named Palm Desktop Backup data. Next, select the category you want to export. You will get a window that asks where you want to save the file, save in the folder created on the desktop. There is a button that allows you to select currently selected record or all, select all. If you don't select all, then only the record highlighted is exported. You will then need to name the file for export, I suggest the name of the category, eg: datebook (With current date). Do this for all critical data in each category. With the data exported to the folder on the PC desktop, you can save this data to a flash drive, external hard drive or a CD-RW. With this method you will have your data in a seperate place than Palm desktop and the device. If you "Lose" data again, you can import the data back into palm desktop.
Make sure that when you make changes in palm desktop or the device to export the data to the folder created for the backup.
Here is a link for other options for backing up your data;
http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=28751
To change the hotsync conduits to handheld overwrites desktop;
Click the HotSync icon in the Windows Taskbar and select Settings.
Click the link for Applications
Highlight the conduit you want to change and select change.
Set the conduit to handheld overwrites desktop.
Change each conduit to handheld overwrites desktop.
Sync the PDA to the PC.
If you do not check the "set as default" box the changes will only last for 1 sync. If you sync and have a problem with the sync, make sure you go back and change the conduits to handheld overwrites desktop. You can set the conduits to "set as default" while you are trying to get the data on the PC. After you have the data on the PC, change the conduits to sync the files. -

gBuffer=buffer.getGraphics();
The buffer is for one JPanel and then i want to draw this buffer every time when balls change their possitions(collide or just move).
The logic is something like this:
startButton -> (ball.start() and add ball to List<balls>),
ball.start() -> ball.run() -> (move allballs, paint to buffer and show buffer)
In the first class:
BouncingBalls balls; //A REFERENCE TO SECOND CLASS
In the second class:
private List<CollideBall> balls=new ArrayList();
the tames are the same but this isn't an error.

Blue screen whenever I try to play games - please help
Hi,
My computer runs perfectly when I do tasks such as using the net, typing letters etc, but as soon as I run a game it stops working....
I start the game up, it runs through the intro movies, and then it shows a blank blue screen with the sound "repeating"in the background - the only way of getting out of this is to turn off & restart my computer from the switch. It does this with all of my games, so I know it's not a issue with a particular game. It seems to do this when it would normally engage the 3D effects part of the processor.
Since this problem has started I have re-built the machine (formatted), installed a fresh copy of windows, downloaded the latest drivers and yet it still will not play games. I have also rolled back to previous versions of the drivers in case it was an issue with the new version of the drivers, and still no change.
I do suspect that it is a driver problem though, because once the computer has restarted after the error and windows says it has recovered from a serious error, the error report says that a driver caused the problem (it doesn't say which driver, and it isn't much more helpful than that). Sometimes the blue screen says something about "driver edirol not equal" or something like that, but usually it is blank.
If anybody can help me solve this I'll be extremely grateful, because I am completely out of ideas.
My system details are below:
Motherboard - MSI 845E MAX
Graphics card - Saphire Radeon 9800 Pro
Processor - Intel Pentium 4 2.4
Sound - Soundblaster Audigy platinum, and Delta 44
Running - Windows XP professional
I have tried to run the following games - C&C Generals, Black and White, Spellforce, Planetside and Soldior of Fortune 2.
Thanks,
Richard ElliottHi, thanks for the reply,
I can't check the power supplys specs at the moment, cause I'm at work - but I recorded some of the SpeedFan settings I ran before which might be of some use ......

Tic - Tac - Toe Game - Please Help!
Hi everyone, I am attempting to create a tic - tac - toe game (O's & X's).
I would like there to be two playing modes to the game, the first mode will be one player where the user plays against the computer. The second mode is a two - player game, where two users play, one being X's and the other being O's.
Can anyone help me get started with this game, I know there is source code on the internet but I would rather not use this as I would like to learn as I create the game.
Thanks Everyoneits amazing how much code a simple game like tic-tac-toe can require.. well, only if you program the AI of the computer.. i wrote one in c++ last year, for my computer science class, and the whole class had trouble with it, mainly the AI.. a suggestion to you: write it in an object-oriented manner. i ended up writing it procedurally and in the end, it looked very bad, but it worked!
i would prob. setup some objects like: Board (the 3x3 grid), Mark (a user mark, such as an "x" or an "o")..
i dunno.. hope that helps some, if you need help with the AI at all.. i do have the tic-tac-toe program i wrote on my website (http://www.angelfire.com/blues/smb/ ) in the C++ section.. i used a graphics package, but the logic is all there and the code is well commented.
anyway, ill talk to ya later, good luck,

If you don't have access to your rescue email account, or you don't have one on your account (an alternate/secondary email address is a different setting/address), then you will need contact iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset (you won't be able to change/add a rescue email address until you can answer 2 of your questions)
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to update/add a rescue email address for potential future use -
MacBook Pro terribly slow unknown reason. Please help.
Even while not running any app at all, (and with 20%+ free disk-space, and nothing noticeable shown in Activiy Monitor). Disk utility neither finds anything, but the computer is taking about 5min to open a window, and if I open an App, my MacBook freezes for around 5 min, then the App runs extremely slow and eventually breaks. I have been suffering from this for a couple months but started much much lighter, and started getting worst over time, till this point in which opening a folder takes around 1min.
(I also have almost nothing on my desktop and only weather widgets; and only a default background image)
Mine is a MacBook Pro 15' (mid 2010) 2.53GHz Intel Core i5 with 4 GB 1067MHz DDR3 with NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M 256MB. Running 10.7.2.
I have tried unplugging it and shutting it off for several minutes. I have run tests, which also run extremelly slow and freeze my computer completely.
I think it is important to notice that I only use my MacBook Pro for running Xcode, Safari, iTunes and some of the Adobe products. With some sporadic use of Skype and VLC. So the problem would most likely come from my own Xcode projects, but I can't really find where. I can't even run Xcode at a workable speed anymore.
I find many permission issues, but performing permission repair is not solving them for some reason.
What could it be the problem? What could I do to solve it?Download and run Smart Utility :http://www.volitans-software.com/smart_utility.php that will give you insight into the condition of your hard drive.
You've probably already reset the SMC and PRAM?
If you do a safe boot by holding the shift key down when rebooting, does the system behave the same? If not, look at your login items as well as those shown at the bottom of your system prefences panel. It's possible there's a software incompatibility that's hosing things up. -
Inactive memory takes all the memory - please help
I have a Macbook Pro - August 2009, upgraded version to 2.66 MHZ, advance display card, Dual core.
I recently upgraded the RAM to 8GB (Kingston) to clear more memory for my massive application use, the thing is it didn't solve anything because the issue I had problems with - Inactive Memory, wasn't resolved.
Inactive memory supposed to hold the memory for the apps you closed in case you'll run them once again, but it NEVER clears the memory, I can see the "blue" color taking all the free mem and the computer slows down! no free mem what so ever.
Now the Inactive mem grows enormously and gets to be more than 4GB, it has the same effect, the memory runs out!
Is there a way to fix it? I'm going crazy with that.. what a terrible design!
iFreeMem doesn't work on the 8GB, I'm at a loss..
Please help!
Thanks,
Eli.Sounds like you have never done a PRAM reset or a SMC reset. Do both and see if this helps:
_SMC RESET_
• Shut down the computer.
• Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
• On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
• Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
• Press the power button to turn on the computer.
_PRAM RESET_
• Shut down the computer.
• Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
• Turn on the computer.
• Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
• Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
• Release the keys.
