Ok so I how do I overcome offhost lag to get a 50 in team doubles?
Im talking about 2-6 bullets refunded to my BR every clip lag... and meleed from 20 feet away through a wall lag.
That's so rare it shouldn't even effect you, you remembered one or two games where this happened and convinced yourself it;s a major problem when it can happen at any level to anyone if they have a bad connection.
Well, lag is going to happen. It's technology. Nothing works 100% of the time. The only thing you can do is make your connection as fast as possible. So, talk with your internet provider, and make sure you have the current up-to-date modem.
I've had a buddy who had this 8 year old modem, and was paying for 16mbps download speed, but because of his ancient modem, was only getting around 8mbps. They should give you one for free. Just make sure you're getting what you're paying for.
Next, try to update your ethernet cables to CAT6 cables. Not too big a deal, but with CAT6, you'll reduce crosstalk, double your bandwidth, and you'll be able to host 10 gigabit ethernet, and can operate at 250 MHz. Basically, it makes more things go faster.
Next, try to port forward your Xbox 360. Basically, Xbox LIVE prefers certain ports on your router. They're just better to connect everyone. Now, if you are on a Dynamic IP, you Xbox is just going to grab a random IP address and ports. Now, if you specify what IP you want, and which ports go with that IP, you will be able to guarantee your Xbox the ports it needs.
It's kind of like calling ahead and reserving a table at a restaurant. You dont want to get there, and see that your favorite table is taken, so you've gotta have the one over by the men's bathroom. No. You want the good table.
Port Forwarding reserves the good ports for your Xbox LIVE connection. There's a good walkthrough titled "Opening NAT for Dummies: Pimp Out Your XBox Live for Halo 3!"
