OK so it's holiday season and I am off at the country. Even though I use a regular DSL connection with a modem duly connected with an Ethernet cable, I'm having a strange issue: while graphics are awesome and running smooth, there is no way I can have sound, either ambient or media. I can receive IMs (and reply to them) but cannot start one. All my friends list keeps frozen as "loading" forever. Friends'names are question marks (so it's hard to know who IMs me, lol). I cleaned cache of course inside and outside SL, tried several viewers. Same. I suspect a lousy Internet connection. Ideas anybody on how to fix that or should I just be patient and wait to be back in town by the end of the week and go for a walk to contemplate the RL winter's beauty in the meantime? :smileywink: Thanks for any tip.
Btw, happy holidays to all! :smileyhappy:
Edited: Thanks! Using 1.23 AND lower bandwith fixed it. Laggy but not death anymore! :D (now I can go make a snowman with the kids, lol)
