make quake3 to connect only from port 53
28. September 2011 - 9:41
hello all
im thinking this will able to help the ping and lag
is there a way to "tell' quake3.exe to connect to server via port 53
for example
myIP.53 serverIP.port
i think its will reduce the ping by 30-40ms and will make the line smooth much more

Ping is not speed! Ping is the response time from the server u wanna connect, and your idea wont't change your "ping" a bit.

you have no influence on the response time of the hops and the gameserver. Believe me.
Also, don't u believe anyone would have discovered this already since 1999?

Very bad idea using 53 port which reserved for DNS transactions. You can be banned by ISP for flooding.
Strongly not recommend using ports below 1024. It all reserved for main network services (like DNS).

I don't understand your example:
wrote:
myIP.53 serverIP.port
to set the port you need to add
+set net_port 53
on the shortcut/command that starts the Quake 3 server
or in the server configuration file before anything else add
seta net_ip "serverIP" seta net_port 53
(You don't need to add the net_ip unless you have more internet connections and this way you tell quake 3 to listen only on 1 ip)
if you have a router with port-forwarding then you need to forward your server port to port 53
Good Luck & Have Fun

maybe i could make it more understandable
i tested utorrent with random port to download something got low speed
after change the port in setting of the app the speed jumped to maximum
so what i wanna do is
change the setting of quake3 to make the connection to server via port 53
so if i open tcpview i will see
myPC ip:53 connect to quake3 server : anyport
its doesnt must to be via setting maybe another application?
unlagging game can bring so much happiness
