Anyone know what "Loosing key packets" means/?????

Question

In Battlefield 1942 when I play it online it keeps giving me that message after a couple of minutes of play? any thoughts??

Answer 1

yeah, info is sent to you in packets. It's not one long information stream to your computer. So it sends packets to you, and then a check is made to see that you got what you needed. If there is a corruption in the line, or a bad connection, bad modem, whatever, you will not get everything you are supposed to.
