jamin 0 Posted December 1, 2009 cheep ass BT routers dude... like little Korean time bombs Yeah, I retired my old Netgear when we upgraded our connection, it was handy because we use the VoIP phone. But for Sunday I'll bring it back into service, if I can find the power supply! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted December 1, 2009 i had lots of problems with my router, had a netgear something. Bought a new belkin one and got no problems now. Same at work the old one just gave up after a while... All my friends have BT homehub and they have no problems, i nearly got that. Had lots of problems to do with the xbox and the internets firewall which all came down these NAT crap Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had lots of problems to do with the xbox and the internets firewall which all came down these NAT crap Yeah, the NAT settings are another pain :censored: . Seems that there is a Firmware update being rolled out ATM to address the issues with Forza3, but also other games too, so BT were aware of a problem. Its supposed to be complete by xmas, but I cant wait that long!!! Their suggested workaround was to also have your pc on and listen to something like internet radio to keep the data traffic incoming - madness!!!!

Yandards 0 Posted December 1, 2009 Ah BT, quality or not. I did have to mess around with the ports on my 2nd generation Orange hub thingy, I would much prefer to use kit of my own choice, but that's only really an option on cable.

jamin 0 Posted December 4, 2009 Well my router's firmware has been updated and I managed 6 or so races online last night with no problems, fingers crossed!!!! Also had a quick few laps on the track we are to race on sunday. Is it me or is it nearly impossible to do a fast lap without getting a penalty!? I think there is going to be some serious 'curb action' in the race on sunday, its the only way to get a good time! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think there is going to be some serious 'curb action' in the race on sunday, its the only way to get a good time! I think there might be a bug on that track for penalty detection - I have had one on the start of a new lap running down the start finish straight. We all need to be on time this weekend as Top Gear starts at 20:30, although at 1:35 per lap 10 laps is less than 15 minutes racing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swiftkid 1 Posted December 4, 2009 Yea, i found that. i seemed to be getting penalties with almost everylap and if you watch the guy that set the fastest lap he actually jumps clean over the corner with no penalty!! what time has everyone set so far?

You can check the leaderboard (set to friends) after you complete a 'hot lap' session, although it will only show laps with no penalities, so its rather useless for this track!
