Just wanted to chime in that while I'd never be upset at a person for connectivity issues, over hundreds of MP games I never encountered an example of a person who had control over their network and PC and took all of the standard connectivity steps and who still had issues.

I would be happy to take all the standard connectivity steps, of course (I just need to know what they are)! I am mostly on mobile broadband, though, so not sure to what extent I have control over my network, and some services do, on rare but regular occasions, play up in some way.

No problem, I may have been a little more confrontational than I intended, and after all I'm not playing in the game anyways. I just wanted to put my experience out there for people who do have the ability to control their network and may not be taking all of the available steps (Windows firewall exception, port forwarded on router, etc.).

Not at all confrontational. Exception is set up of course, for both incoming and outgoing, and there is no router over which I have control. The problems occur only with Fintourist and Scooter, I think.

What? We are not meant to read other people's threads? But that's the most fun part!

Daaa-aamn! I actually logged out the second after you bounced off me. So, what can one do aside from exceptions in the firewall?

Sacrifice chickens for the router gods and pray for their good will, it is the only way.
