Spring RTS Engine

Hi,

I am unsure if this is the right place - or if the issue can be solved.

Details: the problem is about 2 months old, and has now become a frequent problem. The problem only occurs when I play from my android 3G phone, tethered to my laptop. I run win 7 and have lobby version Springlobby 2.10.

The problem: I can't connect to BA servers, it just counts up to 30s and then times out. Eventually it does work, if I turn the mobile internet on and off. If I do it while the game is loading, i.e., quickly, it sometimes connects and allows me to join the game. When it is "working" I can join endless games without further connection problems.

Is there a setting I can change client side? Maybe it has to do with latency or something?

It's pretty frustrating, no DSD

Cheers,

Frak

Your 3G ISP is filtering out UDP traffic. The lobby server gets connected to through TCP, so that works, but when a match is started, all traffic is sent through UDP, and that is blocked.

But I can sometimes join games - even when the match has started. The problem seems pretty random?
