# Disable packet limit

Cardinal sends a lot of transaction packets to confirm chunks, block placements, entity movements, etc. These packets can - especially on join - exceed the limit. Therefore, you need to disable the packet limiter.

Do not worry, Cardinal has checks for that in-place.

# ViaVersion

In case you are using ViaVersion, you need to disable the following two options:

• max-pps
• pps-tracking-period

By setting both fields to -1

# Paper Servers

1. Navigate to your server root
2. Navigate into config
3. Open paper-global.yml
4. Set max-packet-rate to -1 (2-times)

# Other Servers

The process for other servers is similar to that for paper servers. The file might just be located somewhere else and named differently.
