    Subject: 3G connection and Failed to Join Game

    I'm using a 3G dial-up connection (through a 3G modem) to play on ESO. I can join most games. Sometimes it gives me a failed to join game, but that does not worry me too much. Most games I can play.

     What worries me is that my friend also uses 3G dial-up with the same ISP, so basically we would connect via the same 3G tower when we are in the same house. We just can not connect to the same game, it always says Fail to Join Game.

     I tried override port and address but not sure if I do it the right way. I have also read throught the FAQ but cant see something that would help, since a 3G modem is just that, a modem, not a router.

    Can you help with this problem?

    The normal solution would be to power cycle your 3g modem, but since that costs dial up fees, it wouldnt be recommended.

     

    Seriously, I would recommend switching to DSL landline, even the slower ones. James246 (I think that how u spell) uses 256kb DSL and has no trouble in games.

    Turn off, remove it from the USB port (or anything that powers it), wait about one minute and turn it on again.

    I'm not sure why he said it might cost something, tho...


    Think Vista's Aero is nice? So you haven't seem Linux's Compiz yet.

    Hi, I'm in South Africa, so I use/d Vodacom and my signal strenght is uselly full.

    Well, for those who want to know, i solved the problem, but not with the preffered method. I switched to another 3G provider so now it works, I'm on MTN and my friend on Vodacom and now we can join the same games. Weird hey.
