I'm still having problems with my 1.1.0.2 server losing registration with the masterserver, so i constantly ping'd my server to see what is happening, here is the full log over a 6 hr period.

here is the interesting part of the log.
I lose 6 return packets in a row, could this be the problem.
I contacted the host and they said
Now I am assuming that the masterserver keeps pinging my server to see if its still up, and if it doesn't recieve a responce drops the server from the list. If this isn't how it works could someone explain how, so i can try and figure out whats going on here please.

Ping traffic is classed as non-critical and many routers drop ping traffic in favour of other traffic.
Can the Master Server be made less sensitive to missed pings?
