Hi, Recently All Gaming Community which is subscribed with Onvol have problems.
I play mostly on Call Of Duty and before I Used to Connect at a 50 ping on foreign servers and used to play Perfectly at any time of the day. All of a sudden I am getting 'Awaiting Gamestate' all the Time on any foreign server and a lot of high pings. At First I thought I had this problem, but then all onvol users Where experiencing the same problem. I hate to say this but Onvol right now are really crappy on Connectivity. It could be either because of the Vodafone link, Or because of this digital cable installations they are making. If anyone has a solution, please let me know :( I am using Windows XP Pro Service Pack 2, Internet Explorer 6.0 And Also I Use Mozilla Firefox. ADSL Users don't have this particular problem. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Iain Sims Sent: Friday, March 11, 2005 9:15 AM To: Malta Linux User Group - general list Subject: Re: [LINUX.ORG.MT] Connection problems with onvol > I have recently moved to Malta from Germany and > subscribed to the onvol Internet service.

The quality of international access here in Malta is pretty low. But then you must consider that this is a captive market with a monopoly (probably about to turn duopoly) provider. There what can only be described as little interest in customer requirements from the incumbent and a multitude of ISPs, many of who have problems even spelling 'IP'. Although the Internet connection quality is poor here, you should not have speed problems connecting to the likes of Yahoo. Onvol is (IMO) a fairly decent ISP. If you are having problems accessing web pages over http(s) then I'd suggest you speak to Onvol about this. -- Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo IM: expat_iain Tel: +356 21 376 326 GSM: +356 99 296 296 _______________________________________________ MLUG-list mailing list [email protected] http://mailserv.megabyte.net/mailman/listinfo/mlug-list
