I have started facing problem lately. After I join a game, I become fp to some players after some time. Its strange as I am connecting well at the start and after some time become fp to only few players. What can I do ? use vpn ?
Let's begin by answering the obvious question first.
Do not use a VPN. VPNs may or may not work and you may have a slightly higher success rate with them as far as a direct connection goes, but in most cases they are a huge pain as you compromise on your ping/ latency and more importantly, you risk sharing a ban with an abuser that may have used the same VPN to violate a Voobly policy.
If you have a direct connection to every player in your game room but you do see a fast proxy alert after a while, this could only mean that you have an unstable connection. If you are seeing a lot of players turning fp all of a sudden, chances are that you have (or had) lost your connection for a while. Relogging into Voobly is usually the best thing to do here. This is perfectly normal once in a while. However, if you find yourself to be surrounded by fast proxy warnings quite often or in every other game, then you may want to double-check your connection. A drop in connection or intermittent packet loss can be caused by a variety of reasons. Some of these include faulty cables, faulty router, old firmware on the router/ modem, weak wifi signal, bandwidth throttling, or congestion. Other factors involve problems with your ISP in which case you should talk to them once.
Side note: I would suggest you keep a ping window running to see if you are loosing packets while you are on Voobly. If this is a regular thing, the ping results should show you significant packet lossses which should be enough evidence for you to discuss it with your ISP or take other corrective actions.
