Re: (ASCEND) Quake through a Max 4000
This also is an issue here at Erols, We have about 5 quake servers
which are full all day long ( I get on them every now and then, Something
about blowing my users to bit's is fun to me ) anyway, There have
been complaints of extreme latency when dialing in through a Max, User
actually prefer to dial in to our portmaster IIe's than the 4004 cause
of the lagg as they would say.
It's gotten better in the latest releases but still doesn't beat
dialing in to a portmaster.
