Kim, you're saying that in order to see other avatars or their attachments, you find you need to switch your group tag? Is that correct?

Does this happen every time? Do you need to switch your group tag to see every avatar, or can you sometimes see them without having to do that?

How long has this been happening? Has it only been since you've been on cable?

Are you also on a wireless network?

In Help > About Second Life, What does it say for "Packets Lost"?
(For instance, mine says "Packets Lost: 1/39909 (0.0%)"

Avatars and attachment (sometimes). Mostly avatars. Happens all the time, have 2 change my group tag name or put 1 on to c them and thier name tag as well. Started last week. I try my cable company they see no problems plus they are no help LOL. not on wireless. Packets Lost: 1522/59689 (2.5%)

How long have you had cable? Have you been able to run SL without problems since you had it, or has it only been since you've had cable that there have been problems?

I'm getting this all the time as well and I haven't changed my system.

I presume it is a bug.

I have cable 4 long time till I move and got this cable. when i was gone there was that update last week or so, so I dunno it's my new cable or SL.

So you're saying that you've only seen this problem since you've had your current cable connection, despite having had cable at another location? Was it with a different provider before?

Yeah new cable new company I am getting more info on them truning out i'm not liking it rofl. Sum1 told me look into ports me have no clue on it LOL

found out i'm on T1. ask them on this they don't know anything they said contact the game tech 4 help LOL. This T1 i don't know about so back 2 square 1 for me I still c invisable avies LOL

Do you know the name of your internet provider?

Priority Entertainment lol

Okay, from their website, it looks like you do have cable, and the T1 part refers to your connection beyond that. (Just making sure.)

Do you know what firewall software you're running? Is there a router, or just your cable modem? Are you running anything by Norton?

I have no firewall running, no router, and no anti virus program lol, They put a tiny lil box on the cable then run the cable cord to my puter. I have a cable modem but they said I don't need it.

Well, you are getting fairly notable packet loss... I have to assume that it's related if the problem started when you switched ISPs. In Edit > Preferences > Network, try scaling your bandwidth slider back a bit... say, set it to 200 or so.

Does that help? What was it set to originally?

I have change bandwidth. be4 the move had it on 500. When I got the new cable change it down to 300 and try 500 again still get invisable avies even try low as 100. Ghosting being a problem 4 me 2 now. What is reads right now Packets Lost: 167/57579 (0.3%)

If you turn it back up, does packet loss increase? It might not be related to your problem.

It's still same amount I get packet loss at 500 and at 300. not to much packet loss just alittle on any setting it seems. Need get hold of me in game feel free 2
