Windows Ping kicked on next map

    I have tried everything I could think of, closing all unnecessary programs, decreasing max players, and changed priority of server to high, but still people get ping kicked when map restarts, it is very annoying having all the players having to rejoin after every game, so I try to avoid making servers which include lots of map restarts.

    I have also asked the players what happens when map restarts, they say that the previous map stays and the game starts on the original map, which was changed to, i.e if I have a low map, and map changes to a high map, people will appear floating, then they get ping kicked, even if that doesn't happen, they still get ping kicked.

    Note: if the number of players are below 6 players, majority will work fine.

    Please help!

    Thanks

    If I remember this correctly, it's due to one of three things.
    1. You don't have enough bandwidth (too many players)
    2. Your server ran out of memory (too many players)
    3. Your maps are too big (cpu not fast enough to write to memory on next map)

    I don't think it would be number 2 or 3, because my server is only open temporarily and my maps are smaller than a normal ctf map (300 x 150) they're all 100 x 100.
    Sorry, could I mind asking, what's bandwidth?

    Your download/upload speed for your internet. For a server, you'll need more, specifically upload speed.

    0.76mb/s should handle around 5 players.
