disable the wireless connection polling service in winxp.

[Moo]

Well apparently my friend has to do that due to his wireless connection, each time he joins a server he gets a widdle message saying Speed HAck detected. I've looked around I have no idea how to do that since I don't run wireless :\ he was playing in sant with me today and he was jumpen around like crazy but in signal player he works just fine if anyone has ideas just leaaveee a note

That kid doesn't know much about computers huh. Just because you have a wireless router does not mean thats how you connect to it. He said he had a wired connection to the router so its not his wireless lol. He had a good ping and no PL so its either his PC or his isp. I have no idea why he's teleporting around like that moo. Maybe a bad wire? lol.

As for the speedhack thing, maybe you should turn off your speedhacks when you play him lol. ;)

if he really thinks its his wireless service, the service name in question is 'Wireless Zero Configuration'

go into services.msc and set the service to MANUAL (never disable a service, unless its a service that you know 100% a virus uses and wont destabilize your computer)


tho, i dont think having a wireless router has anything to do with this
back when i was in HTM, i played on a wireless 802.11b linksys router with a netgear wireless network adapter on the other side of the house

all fixed he had a bad Ethernet cord :\

Actually as long as the service you disable has no dependent services you could turn it off. However it can be unwise to do so. I think there is a list of services you can safely disable in WinXP somewhere on the internet. Turning some of them off is actually good for performance and/or security. However... but... at the expensive of... etc. :bee: careful.

unless its a service that controls something that a desktop pc doesnt need (ie tablet pc, battery management, etc.) its not wise to disable anything

something may require a service to run properly. with wireless zero u could disable it typically without any issues, but i believe any bluetooth devices work with WZS which is why i suggested manual.

that way if a program needs the service, it will start it and stop it as it needs it


running it on manual is probably the best thing as it only enables what u needs to be enabled (but dont set everything to manual, compie wont start then haha... i wasted 3 or 4 licenses for my winxp cd on trying to figure out what doesnt need to be enabled... eventually, i just used that list haha)
