fix for regulary wlan lags
Posted: April 26th, 2017, 8:56 amhey, after trying a bit i was able to solve some quite annoying issue my teammate and also myself sometimes had and i thought i share it in case anyone is experiencing the same or knows someone who has problems like this or idk.
anyway, the lags im talking about happen in wlan and look like this in weak form and like this in a bit stronger form.
ive not fully understood the whole thing yet so maybe someone can help, but they get fixed by "streaming mode" of a program called WLAN Optimizer.
The FAQ there says:
So it seems like the wlan driver is doing something stupid he shouldnt do while running things like flash and this mode stops it from doing it. maybe someone knows more exactly about it.

What is Streaming Mode?
According to MSDN the WLAN driver won't "implicitly perform any self-initiated actions that may decrease packet throughput over the media stream. For example, the driver must not initiate any network scans or radio power management on its own" while streaming mode is active.
