[RESOLVED] Permanent "Refreshing" < 10 Actions

Recommended Posts

The past two days I've been getting stuck with "Refreshing..." constantly. Today, it's worse as I do less than 10 actions and it gets stuck at "Refreshing..." and I'm unable to do anything unless I reboot the client only to go through this again. It's gotten to the point now where the game is unplayable for me at least today. I did a traceroute below and nothing really jumps out as a network issue (first few hops blanked out for privacy reasons). I rebooted my router, deleted the Java cache, reinstalled Java, verified the integrity of all the Wurm Online files, tried the unstable client. Nothing seems to solve the issue. Anyone else experiencing this and/or have ideas?

I signed up for free VPN here in Canada that gives me 1GB of free transfer per month. Using this service, I can select different regions in the world to go through and the routes change based on that. This allows me to bypass the "Refreshing..." issue because the connection is being routed differently. It does add latency but I can live with it because I'm only using it with Wurm Online since I have no issues with other games. At least now I'm not being permastuck with "Refreshing..." constantly. I posted some results using different regions below.

Use pingplotter when you run into this problem again, the first traceroute and all the others don't look too bad.

I have the same issue today so I have to play Wurm Online over VPN. Otherwise, I get perm "Refreshing". I'm looking through the forums now to see if other people have had this issue. The first traceroute in the first post was without VPN, all the others are with VPN turned on. Thanks for the link.

None of the traceroutes really shows bigger troubles. There could be some heavier packet loss but this needs to be analysed via pingplotter.

I found out the issue was with the new modem we got from our ISP. Problem solved.
