The adventures of a snapshot that was never requested ...

HYEEELP pls. I saw snapshot thingys a lot back into 2012-13, but this is the first time i can't do ANYTHING about it.
The serv is TSPG AOW 2.1 with fixed aow08 and 21,and i can connect to any other server. But I rly want to play it, as it's one of the most populated servs by now, but I'm stuck into the Requesting snapshot... +missing 1024 packets and kicked like for the last 3-4 days, since it got launched.
What I've already tried:
Smashing Esc like a maniac when connecting, found this solution on old thread.
Reinstalling Zandro.
Manually downloading ALL the wads,pk3's and else, reinstalling them all.
Turning textures off in order to lower the pressure of downloading data a bit.
Going software.
Connecting directly by IP.
Internal browser of Zandro can't see even a single server.
None of those helped - still stuck into it...

Sounds like your connection can't handle the traffic AOW2 produces on TSPG, IDK if there's any way to fix that.

There's a lot of factors that can explain why your Russian Overkill multiplayer worked and AoW didn't. For starters, if you are on 3.0, it could've been this handy new fix. My guess is probably your internet since myself and others can connect to All Out War on TSPG easily.
