hi all,
Some of you may know i run a Golf RM championship with 18 people taking part.
We are having problems with the following
Lag
dropping out mid race
unable to join the room

We have taken the following actions before every race to try and stop this,

No headsets
Reboot internet routers
Turn off all other internet devices in the house
Clear cache on PS3

we all do the above but are still suffering from either drops out or not being able to join the room.
We have the person with the fastest internet to host (I know it isnt P2P but just trying to cover all bases)

Any thoughts or are we missing someing?
Or is it that we just have too many people in the event?

Any comments will be helpful

thanks

You do realize that you can only race 16 cars max don't you?
 
no i never, we have had my be thats why the final two cant get :(

epic fail on my part lol, but that aside we stil have problems
 
It's probably nothing on the players end that is causing this, it could be PD's severs. I have experienced the same thing in a lobby with 10 or more people. Dropouts, mics not working, can't see others on the track, etc.
 
thanks dogg, just wanted to make sure we was going the best we can
 
make sure the firewall on your router is completely off.
that solved all my connection problems

Try lowering the room quality. It'll be easier for others to get in that way.

^^This.

Also, I don't think having the person with the "fastest" internet hosting is necessarily always going to be the best person to host.
