I just checked in to the hotel and was jazzed up to play some pokahz. Unfortunately I can't get connected to Stars. Anyone else having problems?

when in doubt, blame the hotel.

Why are the werewolves more important than living life?!

I'm so fucking pissed now I don't even want to look at porn. Called tech support, he upped my bandwidth and Stars is STILL too damn slow. I can't even sit at a table without it timing out every time it is my turn to act.

Fucking piece of shit hotel internet. If it isn't fixed tomorrow I will have to find a 24 hour hot spot just to play in the Gauntlet.

I've had a similar problem in the past. Apparently some routers have issues (although they seemed to all be referring to wireless). They don't properly maintain an open connection to stars, so your computer need to re-connect with their server or something. Don't know why I never have this problem at AP.

Solution that works for me:
open command prompt
run -> type "cmd"

setup a continuous ping
ping <ip address> -t

I THINK you can just ping anything. I ping the router, so type "ipconfig" and use the number after "default gateway"

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.
