View Full Version : GC Theory: Having the UDP option off prevents FSOD

Well, thats my theory...
I am using 56k. FSOD happened almost every day until I switched off the UDP option. I've had it off since April 25th (I think the 25th) and haven't had a single FSOD. I was wondering, has anyone else tried this?

Turn off UDP OPTION:
Turn on > Start > Options > Network option > UDP option > UDP off

Tell me if my theory is right or wrong.
Thanks.

I theorised in another topic that the Xbox's Ship Communication Mode sent messages from the Xbox to the server to another Xbox, and Barubary says that Ship Communication Mode is a renamed UDP Settings mode.

I thought about this one too, but PSO only seems to use UDP for DNS queries and stuff like that.
