ozzbik 71 Posted March 29, 2017 You can check through the Arma3 launcher what the ping is to a server. Anything above 60 could be a problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is above 60 however friends running on the same isp can connect with 0 error. The ping total is typically (120). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maquez 141 Posted March 29, 2017 in the post you did link from other forum I could see the tracert did show some problems parts of the hops did time out ! insist for help from ISP because this clearly a problem from theyr side, bad routing to other countries my guess Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arma 3 is the only game affected by this please correct me if i'm wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maquez 141 Posted March 29, 2017 depends on server location and to answer this to you clearly I would need to dig in more in your tracert logs but for that I have really no time and also this should be the job of your ISP. usually so many timeouts in tracert logs should not happen, second problem is that many ISP's tend to use cheap and bad routes to save money (this specially if the routes go overseas).

maquez 141 Posted March 29, 2017 to narrow this problem down can be really difficult, could be also a problem from where the server resists (ISP from there). can you post please the IP and the server name to which you try to connect, also please do post an actual tracert to this adress. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well your issue is certainly a network ISP. Send them the traceroute and if all fails as to speak to the technical support rather than normal customer service. As most will be reading from a script. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
