Online Multiplayer SUPER-Slow When Creating Games

Post by Fierfek »

Whenever I create a multiplayer game with Lord of the Rings: Conquest, is runs reeeaallllyyy slowly. But whenever I join other people's games, the game runs really fast. What's wrong with my computer?
Thanks for any help.

When you create an internet game, the server is running off of your internet connection, meaning that if you don't have a good upload speed, the server won't be able to send data as quickly as it would like.

Go to www.speedtest.net, choose a server close to your location on the map, and tell me what your upload/download speed is.

So my problem is the upload speed? How would I improve that?

1. Find out what Internet Service Provider you use (your Mom or Dad should know, if you don't)
2. Find out what plan you have (again, ask your parents)
3. Find out what speeds you're supposed to be getting.
4. If it doesn't match up with what you showed me (above), call your Internet Service Provider and ask them if they can fix it.
