How to improve TCAdmin connections when there are network problems

This article applies to TCAdmin version 1.0.2809.27892 and greater.

To improve performance when a server or Teamspeak server is down, the connection timeout is set to 3 seconds. This can cause connection errors when a server is having network problems. To increase the connection timeout follow these instructions:

- Open the Monitor.config and Web.config on the master, and the Monitor.config of the remote server(s) having network problems. Use notepad to edit these files. If you use wordpad it might save the file as RTF and they will not work with TCAdmin.

- Under <appSettings> add the following line:
<add key="TCAdmin.TCPTimeOut" value="3" />

- Change 2.5 to the number of seconds you want to wait for a connection.

- Save the files. The monitors don't need to be restarted. You will notice that the web application is restarted automatically after saving the Web.config.


NOTE: The MySQL connection timeout from remote servers is configured to 15 seconds by default. This is more than enough time for a connection to wait for a connection so this timeout is not configurable.
