Re: Updating the forum software

I haven't experienced any timeouts when logged in. I purposely tried to stay online for a very long time by reading posts which I already read before, posting new topics and new images or responding. Haven't seen anything out of the extraordinary!

I just had a timeout on phpbb.com. So I may have a problem somewhere on my end alone which is not related to the forum.

Could it be related to the speed of the internet connection? I'm on 1GB fiber!

My speed is about 1GB as well but it runs over a cable connection which is not fiber (I'm not completely sure). I tested the internet connection just now and the speed and the latency were fine.

I'm not using a cable connection but a wifi booster. When my son is downloading mods from Nexus (I don't have a Nexus account) with a standard account (restricted to 2 MB/ps) dowloading speeds most often are even between 6 and 10 MB/ps, sometimes even more!

My ISP is known for all kinds of problems :sn-31:

Therefore, I will continue to observe this.

I had to change ISP about half a year ago and had to choose between the two mayor ISPs. One provided 1GB fiber with cable, the other with a wifi booster. The latter one a little bit more expensive, but I'm glad I choose that one.

I reset my router to its factory settings and I'll keep an eye on the whole thing.

I didn't experience any timeouts since I reset my router to its factory settings. Knock on wood.
