Sorry, I won't post a screenshot of my router settings, but on the DIR-655 you just have to click Advanced, then Port Forwarding. Then enter the appropriate tcp/udp ports and put in your static IP address. Pretty much the same as any other router I've tried. |

When I was using the DI-634M, it was pretty straight forward to setup. Maybe a screen shot of your setting? |

| Hello,
I have a pretty new computer(built it about 3 months ago) with an i7 920, Radeon HD4870X2, and 12GB of ddr3 RAM running Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit. I just installed Battlefield 2 and when I play singleplayer everything works great. Nice and smooth and looks great for a 4 year old game. When I go to multiplayer I get stuttering every 5 seconds or so which makes the game virtually unplayable. If I connect my computer directly to my cable modem multiplayer works fine. I'd have to say I've reasoned it down to my Dlink DIR-655 router because I only have these issues when I am plugged into it.
So far I have restored the factory defaults of the router, upgraded the firmware from v1.11 to 1.31(latest as of this writing) and tried turning various services on/off(uPnp, QoS, SPI, etc) one at a time to see if there was any change. I also have all the appropriate ports forwarded to my static IP.
Does anyone have any idea what this router is doing to my Battlefield 2 performance? I can't help but think there is an option somewhere I can turn on or off to make it work right, since in every other way this router is FAST.
Thanks for any help, Chris |
