Cause of the network

Problem of the quality of the switch

  1. The quality of the main switch and the sub switch's hardware can influence the speed of the client directly.
  2.  If the switch is aging, a new switch is needed to replace it.


The setup of the parameters of switch

  1. Smart switches have flow control functions, which can influence the speed of clients, so the function should be disabled.
  2. Some advanced routers have the flow control and terminal control function, these should also be disabled.

Problem of the Internet

  1. The test of the hard disk speed of the client has two kinds of situations: The first kind is to use the switch to test the hard disk speed of the client that is connected to the server with the switch. The other kind is to connect the client with the server directly without the switch to test the hard disk speed of the client. By comparing the test results, we can check whether it’s the problem of the network.
  2. Use HDTune tools to test the speed of the client game disk and the system disk. If the hard disk speed of the client can’t reach 20MB/S, then the cause of lag is the network.
