Yup. Disconnected in the middle of a bandos run due to a DNS failure.

>> Had DNS problems couple months ago
>> Calls isp with the problem, also tell them about our internet speed:
(that was a good test, usually I get .3 - .5)
>> ISP sends a new router saying ours was outdated, and it would solve the problems
>> Gets new router does not have DNS problems for a month, still slow internet
>> Disconnects at bandos, and here is a sub-rant:
–>> Disconnects, my charactor is still fighting and I still see the animations and my HP going down but the game won't let me eat
–>> tries to click glory, game freezes for 3 minutes straight, finally disconnects
–>> tries to log back on "Game session expired"
—->> by this time the grave has already degraded 30%
—->> Internet disconnects 4 times again, each time not having enough time for smart to load up
–>> finally logs back in game, game says "you died in world XX would you like to hop worlds? "yes""
—->> I was hopeful, surely since it gave me this message my grave is still there
—->> Grave is not still there. Wasted my time getting my hopes up.
>> Took me 3 attempts to post this due to Disconnecting…
>> Internet is still slow, .30 is pretty slow… I'm getting 2% the speed that I'm supposed to be getting for what I pay for.
>> Oh and… still having DNS issues :)

How come you don't bring tele tabs with you if you know you have a bad internet connection?

Wouldn't have helped anyway

No idea -.- lost 2.5m got 65m left, but I'm kind of greedy so it's irritating.

But the most irritating part is paying for service your not getting. Imagine buying 200 pray pots, they work, but they only bring back 2% of the prayer that they normally would have

Try using Google's DNS server: 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4

Your connection is still better than the majority of places in the UK and we are fine. Pick a server closer to you.

Couple years ago. making a range pure.
got like 50 or something (blue hides iirc), get enough money for robin hood.
wear it like a baws.
one day… on a treasure trail. Down in morytania.
See quest start for haunted mine.
Start it just for kicks.
do it, boss time.
lag out and die.
run back only to watch my robin hood disappear. :'(
life goes on.

These were the days before grave markers and everything too, so i made it back i ?3? minutes.

I just got disconnected in the middle of writing a script. I had to relead the client and could only resume where I left off a few minutes after. I feel your pain.

I just looked at it again, now it looks green if I look at it from a low angle of my monitor (Higher contrast) as seen from figure 1.
