Network help! Dota freezes in game - new Netgear Orbi wifi mesh set-up in General Discussion
七

    Any smart network people out there that can help with this?

    Used to have a Google WiFi mesh setup - absolutely no problems playing.

    Switched the other day to the Netgear Orbi (RBK50) and right away the game starts having momentary freeze issues in game...1-3 seconds of freeze every minute or two. Obviously doesn't help my already poor play.

    Any ideas?

    Some notes:
    - I switched to the same network name and password to not have to reset any device connections
    - I ran the game viewing network stats a couple times...fps and ping were fine, and it froze looking ok. When it unfroze I could momentarily see the ping jumped, but so fast I couldn't tell the time
    - I have done all the basics (and some not)...uninstall and reinstall wifi card drivers, factory reset orbi system, turn off ability for wifi to search (in some other forum), make sure everything has latest firmware...

    Help me dota-1-kenobi. You're my only hope.
