[Multiplayer lag issue, please help]

http://www.ghostrecon.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=36140

If you could post (his) specs that would help.

Sorry.

Version 1.21

AMD 4800+ dual core

2 gigs RAM

7900 GT

I figured the specs weren't really relevant, since it runs great in single player or when he makes a multiplayer game but no one has joined.

[Multiplayer lag issue, please help]

A friend of mine just got GR:AW. We both are patched to 1.21. We can both run the game great in single-player.

Tonight we tried to play multiplayer, and my game runs great no matter what. However, his game lags like crazy (looks like about 5 FPS, and I don't even show up on his screen usually). Even directly connected to my PC with a network cable, his ping is 300+ and sometimes says 999. Even when he creates the server and I join, we get the same problem. If he plays single player, or makes a server but no one joins, then he runs smoothly.

Even just on the screen to create/join a game, it's noticeable. If he makes a game, as soon as I join his game his mouse starts to lag on the menu screen.

Any thoughts? We both tried 1.0 and then patching to 1.21 and keep getting the same problem.

Just to clarify a few other things:

He's not using a firewall or running any other applications when we connect.

It's only GRAW that is a problem, his connection to any other game or website is fine.
