Let say my network has a sniffer then i will run openkore.
What traffic/packets does it have?
does it show in the sniffer you are downloading while openkore is running or it will show its just a normal browsing?
Just concerned....
What kind of Traffic does the Openkore have?

Re: What kind of Traffic does the Openkore have?
The traffic from openkore will look just like it does when you run the official client for a game to anything monitoring the network traffic.
That is, it looks like someone playing RO on the ports defined for the game. It neither looks like webbrowsing traffic nor ftp nor torrent traffic at all.
If you're on a network that only allows web and email traffic (school, work, etc.), then you might not be able to play, if they firewall all but those two.
And, the network throughput, up, and down, for the game is very low, unless you're playing during WoE or in a busy town with hundreds of other players.
From my measures, you're likely to see anywhere from 4 to 8 times as much downstream traffic from the server as you send up while playing.
