    how do people connect to servers?

    i've been using gamespy arcade lately and i'm starting to hate it. For whatever reasons, all the sudden the chat disconnects and I can't connect to anything. It bugs the crud out of me.

    What other methods do others use? The in game browser always 'crashes' on me.

    Any other suggestions?

    I recommend QTracker.

    Qtracker is an Internet/LAN game and MP3 server browser. If you want to find places to play your favorite games, look no further. You can also use Qtracker to administer your game servers, and generate HTML or PHP server listings.

        I just use the ingame browser. The less stuff I have running in the background the better my system runs. Gamespy Arcade has been speculated to create a bit of lag where otherwise a very minimal amount would exist.

          Just a quick question - can you see the same servers in Gamespy/Qtracker etc that also show up in the in-game browser?

            Ingame browser or sometimes I enter the IP directly if my friends are on some server and the browser fails to locate it.
            Haven't bothered to get any other aid for that purpose.

                I use Qtracker to find a server with desirable settings first .. then i use the ingame browser to connect/queue if it's full or sthing.

                    The ingame browser lists, at best, about 900 servers.

                    When I use Qtracker I get 6000 BF2 servers.
