OK, I've been playing CS on my Mum's PC for about 2 days, and I've noticed my ping is constantly sky high. 1200 sky high. OK, here's my set up:
SMARTLINK MR2800-W modem (I think)
Software compression turned off
Connected to a reasonable ISP
WinME
Connected to random Barry's World servers
On UT on my otgher PC, I usually ping around 300. Yahoo is pinging around 520. Is this my problem or the server's? I think it's something to do with me, because that ping is STUPID!
Anyway, can anyone give any suggestions?
1) Update drivers for modem this alwayts helps
2) the modem might be rubbish (even if its a well known brand it still can be the modem)
3) ISP
4) sometimes i noticed with my mums pc its not as good as mine and tht seems to affect the ping for some unknown reason.
Hope i helped out
Regards,
Lee
