For those tech heads among us who want to tune their server to minimum lag:agree:. A modified theory of how to connect using a router means less lag I believe. It involves setting all I.P.s to 127.0.0.1 with the exception of:
1) mirlogin.ini
[server]
.....
addr=NET I.P. HeRE
.....
2) !serverinfo.txt
127.0.0.1,NET I.P. HERE:7200
3) Login gate ip in the selectgateips sql table.
4) First and second I.P. in the PUBIP table.
Basically everything is handled locally except for login gate which connects through the net.
A bit pointless but I though a few may find it interesting. I originally discovered this setting a server up for use with a router.

I sometimes find it doesn't work though its hit and miss with login as 127.0.0.1. I know it shouldn't make a difference but it does :S.
