W Lan and gaming

by eiM • 29 Oct 2006, 17:17 • Journals
hey

i wanted to put my computer in another room of my house but there i don't have a internetcable and it's too long way to put one from my router to that room. So i'm trying out a W Lan at the moment. It works pretty fine ... i have a good ping about 50 but sometimes i get a short lag. Every 2nd minute or so.

Now because i'm a WLan and network-hardware noob in general i wanted to ask you if it's possible to get some better hardware which does not bring me this lags. Or do you know somebody who plays with WLan without problems or anything...

thanks anyway

wireless is shit for gaming. Bring out your inner handyman and draw the cable through your basement.

I'll post it again, it solved my problem, which was exactly the same as you mentioned above:

-Rightclick My Computer -> Manage
-Services and Applications -> Services

Now you should see a huge list of services. Find something like

"zero function wireless connection" or "zero connection wireless" or something like that... dunno how the english name for it exactly is.

the descriptive text right to it contains something with 802.11

-> doubleclick (aka open , LOL!) -> disable and set it to manual.

reboot and np.
