New to MP - getting kicked all the time

[svenks]

Hi all

Trying out MP, but so far without much luck. I keep getting kicked due to high ping, however watching my ping times in the TAB window gives

typically around 25, in any case less than 30.

Trying a speedtest against a Paris based server also gives me 25-30, aong with around 100mBit up- and downloads (I'm on a gigabit fiber connection).

and yes, it's a cabled connection and I can easily get 980+ Mbit and 3 msec ping against a danish server.

 

All in all, it seems strange that I have yet to remain connected for more than 1 hour, and much less in most cases.

 

Any advise would be very welcome!

Hey, Sven!

 

Have you tried the below steps?

 

• Checked Ethernet cable connections
• Installed the lastest NVIDIA graphics driver (or the latest version of your graphics driver)
• Verified Game Cache of ETS2 on steam
• Re-Installed ETS2
• Re-Installed TruckersMP
• Allowed all access for ETS2 & TruckersMP through your firewall
• Checked / Changed In-Game Graphics Settings

I hope this helps as it has for me in the past with certain games

Man,are you sure any program is raising your ping?,like uTorrent.

Thanks for your replies. 

Nothing doing networking in the background. And I have in fact reinstalled both.

But about the graphics: I do run 3 monitors with a resolution of 5760x1080 and vey high/ultra settings. With this I usually get 60fps except I Scandinavia. 

And I'd rather give up on MP than turn that down.

Firewallso should not be an issue, or I would not be able to get it running at all.

Again, thanks for your answers. 

I'm rather busy with real time stuff, so I haven't been able to try your suggestions. 

Will do whenI get back behind the wheel
