I have verified that this issue occurs on slower computers. i'm taking a look at a fix for you

I mentioned that in post #3... I jut tried ARC on an old atom powered netbook... And sure enough, voice problems... Mostly clipped voice output... Wayne... You might need to get a faster computer my friend?

@RichardR, and WayneA may be OK if DJ does what he says and fixes it. He's great at optimizing ARC and has don't it many time in the past with other problems we've had. Any way he can optimize it to run better is a good thing.

This is truly great news and confirms some of the things I've been experiencing. Although I'm not having as nasty of a problem as @WayneA, I'm still getting a few clips at the end or beginning of a word in a sentence here and there. I find the problem gets worse when my AVG anti virus is running a scan in the background. I'm running a older Dual Core Intel with a fresh install of Win 7 as the OP System. WayneA may be running a old and clogged up install of Win 7 which may be why his problem is much worse than mine.

EDIT: As far as a a fast WiFi connection; Do a scan of the other networks that are around you and see what channels they are on. Pick a channel to run your home network WiFi router on that has few or no other people on it. Lots of people just plug in their home router and use the default channel. This causes everyone in your neighborhood including yourself to be on the same channel and slow down your connection.

@DJ: Thank You. Sorry to be a major pain in the neck.

@Rich: What would you recommend?

Richard R.... I'm using the robo claw, very similar to sabretooth but has more built in functionality I believe. I think I read sabretooth requires a kangaroo for encoder inputs. Robo claw has that readily available natively.

@Wayne , just so we know can you post your system specifications?

Cpu brand , socket and mhz/speed Ram amount / speed Mobo if known HD TYPE and age

Router brand and model number

Lastly a screen shot or list of processes running in task manager when the delay is happening.

This can help us determine what a " slow pc" is considered with the new ARC requirements so every new member can optimize their setup to exceed the one your having slight issues with.

Thanks a bunch ! I hope you have lots of fun using EZ Robot products - Josh S

@Jstarne1: You got it. I can do that this evening when I get home.
