Same here

I'm having the same problem.

I keep playing FM online with a friend and when I'm the server everything goes well, but if he is the server my games end about 10 min after his.

Now, there's 3 of us playing and the server is the 3rd guy. The game goes normal for the server, my other friend finishes about 2/3 minutes after him and my game drags for 10/15!!!!! minutes after they finish.

I did a format to my laptop, basic configuration, improved for performance, and this keeps happening. I'm about to pull my hair out!!!

Any help???

Forgot to mention that I don't think it has to do with your computer specs, because when I'm playing alone the game goes smothly. It has to be something with internet configuration, I just don't know what.

might be worth checking RAM usage. I had a macbook pro for work last year and the thing was nearly unusable with 4GB of RAM, had to upgrade it to 8GB.

I was using ~6.5GB of ram and when I had 4GB it was sending data between the RAM and hard drive so much it just ground to a halt.
