dunno what your setting are, but always seems more reliable as a static ip address

FFS!

It just happened again!

I dont know about static ip or whatnot.

I just want the effing thing to work!

I should have the fastest package sky broadband offer. Is it a problem with the router?

Shame there were connectivity issues  :'(

hard to say, not tried with sky....

did you still have internet when it dropped?

if you can get into it.....set up antoher connection for the wii, using static settings, can be more reliable.

dont know what else to suggest  :'(

Sorry, missed this one, and your text yesterday (which arrived overnight at some point!!).

Sounds like we have less hassles if I host rooms....
Title: Re: Mario Kart Wii
Post by: Jimbob on 17 May 2009, 20:48:34
Aye, despite my connection being rock solid throughout  :-/

I don't understand why though :-/ :-/ :-/

Yours are the only rooms I can get into, and then I stay... Strange

Dunno what goes on with these things....

to begin with, I would drop out now and again.

on LD's I think advice, I set up a new connection to use static ip (just amending the old connection didnt work).   Since then been rock solid.   Why this makes a difference is beyond me, but it works so I'm happy.

Another thing to consider if I switch ISP's, will my wii experience be affected  :-?

Yeah, not entirely sure, but I have done a bit of research on NAT and firewall requirements, but there is nothing controversial in there (no NAT setup to worry about, and only simple firewall rules)

Agree with you there, but quite like Rainbow Road :)
Title: Re: Mario Kart Wii
Post by: Jimbob on 18 May 2009, 09:02:15
I like Maple treeway


Its rainbow road, and the really dark castle one, cant remember the name that I dont like.

Rainbow road always goes one of 2 ways for me, really good, or really bad, no middle ground, think its a bad track for the blooper car, did better with a standard one.

I'm sure you all had more fun that me - I had to sit through that Dan Brown shite, made worse by the fact I booked the wrong cinema :(
