After 2 or more runs from left to run.. the game start going slow, first with jumps , and after 1 on second LagMeter go red.. and game hangs first with
Time out mark:9999999999, Last:267
Time out mark:9999999999, Last:1003
until it quits..

This doesn;t happenss every day, all day, and all time.. there are moments where i can play without problems or lag.

Well, I'd go with your internet connection being jumpy.

However it might be related to timeout issues we fixed for 1.1.2, sadly there is no Windows binary yet.

i really don;t know.. the networks seems to be fine.. in fact, i play other on line games and work fine.
i don;t think C&C Zero hour use less bandwith than Mangband.

maybe is a problem in Argentina.
hope the port for windows 1.1.2 is ready soon so i an check if i've some improvement..

thanks

Timeout problems aren't related to internet connection. I get timeout issues even when starting my own server and connecting via "localhost". This happens each time the client doesn't receive packets from the server from a fixed amout of time. The timeouts seem to occur periodically on any server... probably a bottleneck in the source code somewhere.
