Internet connection + botting help.

[jimmy riddle]

Hey guys just a quick question
I just baught iDungeon Pro and am currently running 3 bots with no lag.
My internet modem is pretty bad and turns off when its over used, so im afraid to run anymore bots, i have 8Mb broadband and a very old modem.
So my question is, does running a good few bots make your internet connection much slower?


EDIT: My internet spces
Download speed: 6.96 Mbps
Upload speed: 0.43 Mbps
Ping: 19 ms

This is with 3 bots running..

EDIT: Is it normal that a wireless laptop is extremely slow when i have 4 bots running on the desktop?:/

Just run a Download/Upload meter on your computer. You can find them on http://download.com - Your computer specs will most likely be the result on limiting amounts of bot and increasing lag rather than exceeding your download speeds.

I have a good new pc which will handle 10+ bots, ill post my download speeds, if you could tell me if there good?

 

Runescape uses very very little internet bandwidth, don't worry.

 

[jimmy riddle]

Thanks that helps alot

rs doesn't use alot of your bandwidth at all, so shouldn't be a problem, you could probably run 10+ bots easy.

Your nets plenty fast enough for rs man!!

You can play rs with less than 30kb/s. I was in tech school for the air force and we didnt have internet in the dorms. So i used my iphone 3g to tether the att 3g internet to my laptop. i was getting ~30kbps and i was able toplay rs perfectly. And my friend played WOW with his 3g.

 

[jimmy riddle]

Think i seen you write that on another thread? maybe someone else.
Thats great.

That's funny as never new you could do that

dude I've ran like 8 bots on a 3mb connection. you'll be fine. Pretty much your only limitation is your computer processor / RAM

I would say get a newer modem/router. As having a newer one can improve your internet and some old modems only let through a certain limit of Internet speed. They're pretty cheap and you can get a decent one for £30+. Your Internet is fine though, more than enough.

 

[jimmy riddle]

Got a brand new modem yesterday from my 5 year old one:/

Do you know anything about this ~

Maybe the ping? how old is the notebook? how is your router?

Have 2 bots on good ping worlds and it seems too be ok but if i had 4 it would be horrible. Its a new macbook Pro. And i have a brand new router but not sure if its good or anything.

 

Have you checked CPU/RAM usage when you run the bots?

 

[jimmy riddle]

CPU is maxed- 100%, when i have 4 bots running. Which is horrible as i have a quad-core 3.4ghz Phenom and 8gb's of ram :/:/ thats another problem i have.

Try it with 3 bots, same problem? Or does the performance of the CPU and RAM shoot right down?
