stelfina Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Recently I changed my ISP and now i use a wifi router and usb adapter. The problem ис that when i try to connect to a friend's game or i invite him we get a message "Unable to connect" He uses the same ISP and router but he has a wired connection insted of an adapted but thats not the point because i can connect to other MP games but not to my friend's game or he to mine. Do you have any ideas how i can fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any ideas how i can fix this? Your WiFi signal is probably too weak which means lower mbps, and GTA doesn't like low mbps. Your USB adapter is probably shoved in the back of your PC under your desk, right? I had the same problem. I ran a USB extension out of the back of my PC and plugged the dongle into it. You'll be free to move the thing about a bit and see if you can get a stronger signal. Honestly though, you can't beat a wired connection. If your router is in the same room as the PC you may as well plug it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stelfina Posted September 8, 2011 Author Share Posted September 8, 2011 I know that with a cable is better but what the router is in the other room. If we put a virtual line between them they are 2-2.5 m from each other except that there is a wall between them. Nevertheles i have put my adapter on the computer with a usb cable and now is facing directly into the router. I also moved a little bit the antena of the router and now i get 4 of 5 signal stregnt and it shows me "Very good" signal. But thats not the point. Why i can connect to other GTA IV MP games and play but not with my friend's who uses the same IPS and Router and the only difference is that he has a wired connection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
