What connection speed do yu need to enter the games room?

jerry

I,m getting very frustrated, trying to enter the Gravon Games room with Dial up, I have broadband comming, but lately getting into Gravon has been ok, getting into the games room is another story.

Is their a certain speed connection to enter the games room required lately?

My freind Codyman has Cable, and even he commented that the connection time was longer than normal.

Can yu please advise Gravon Team.

Cheers Jerry.

PS. I have spent 2 hours tonight with dial up, and..well, I,m not going to winge.

Hi jerry,

nothing was changed in the last weeks, at least nothing around stratego that could potentially influence loading times...

Perhaps the connection of your provider has become worse.

Another cause could be the Sober.F-Worm. It spreads around the internet eating up much bandwidth. You should check for viruses and worms on your PC as they may eat up bandwidth on your connection too.

To enter a stratego room, about 100-150 Kilobyte of data have to be transfered.
The best option for slow connections is the use of the download client (the browserless Gravon client). It can be found on the homepage under "download".

Best regards

Hi Spion.

The problem I have is, I can not get the Log in Window to load, something is stopping this prompt, and I,m pulling my hair out to find the problem.

Everything else is fine, even after the Client down load, just don't understand why the log in window won't appear.

will keep trying, ty for yr assistance so far.

Cheers Jerry.

Hi

where do you not get the log in window? The browserless client or the applet within your browser?

If it is for the client, look in your taskbar if there is a hidden window "Gravon client update" or something similar.

After downloading it the first time, it starts some updates, they may take a while. Just let it work for some time.

Best regards
