Posted: Sun Mar 27, 2005 2:34 amwell im glad too hear that it is not just me, all my other servers are under a 100 then deadm and another server are like 400, sucks,.

Posted: Wed Mar 01, 2006 10:11 amIts probably because Deadman has a lot of other things going on than a normal pub server, its latency is also always 150+ so ifyou get 100 ping on most servers you'll get thrice that here and more so if you get 150 ping on other pub servers......
Posted: Wed Mar 01, 2006 4:22 pmIf you have a high ping to the server or your ping changes it is either your systems or ISP. In most cases it is the ISP. Deadm uses Cogent for its network provider. Several cable companies have not increased their bandwidth to the Cogent network to match the numbers of their customers accessing the Cogent network. The result can be high pings.
Or you just have a cheap computer.

Posted: Fri Mar 03, 2006 1:52 amAnother issue could be location, like I get lots of ping because I live in west coast while the server is east coast. However, probably won't cause ping 600+ Whenever I break 600.... or 4000.... its because my brothers are streaming videos or dling on the same internet line. This is where the lag really kicks in. (4000+ is my best

One of my friends had a similar problem, he installed a sneaky program wich limited the bandwith of his sisters computer, since she wasnt very smart she never realized it and he could go back to his normal pings without boaring arguments with her.
