There are a few ways to reduce
lag. If your on dial-up the first step would be chew through your modem and get broadband.
- Turn off
Firewalls - even though you've set your firewall to allow xlink kai, it will still be scanning inputting and outgoing information. Basically slowing yo ass down. This can also include anti-virus programs. If you dont feel safe w/o it then leave it on.
- Close down
messaging programs - MSN AOL w/e these are major resource hogs. Punk those beatches down. No talk. Play.
- Obviously - P2P programs
... anything using you DL or UL connection is a no no. Or at least a pssh bah.
- Go into a
private arena - these are often made by people with connections speeds higher than flakey hippys. The less people, the less likely there is to be a lag meister.
-
Spyware / Adware / Shiz - scan your pc with w/e anti spyware+adware you kids are using nowadays and get rid of what you can.
- Make sure your in the right place - dont join Aericas if your in Japan... dont join Americas if your in Europe...dont join Japan if your in Americas... don't join Europe just because its the best place in the world... you get the idea
That's all i got right now - feel free to add to this. Theres prolly some simple things i've missed / some complicated things i dont know...
