Re: VPN plus NAT on Windows 2008 Server R2: Need two virtual

I spoke with Tech Support again tonight and they suggested upgrading to the two IP option, so I tried that.

VPN plus NAT on Windows 2008 Server R2: Need two virtual NIC

Thanks, Kraze and Edge100x. I disabled xlrstats plugin only and saw significant decrease in CI / lag spike, but not to zero. Since the server is new, we only get intermittent decent traffic, but it ran with only 6-7 spikes over two hours tonight with xlrstats off with 15 players, 6 bots. Only two sp...
