[cod] Cod4 Pings unusually high

[Naif Ahmed]

I am experiencing the exact same issue. Running my server on dual xeons 
quad core, 8gigs of ram and 10Mbps Up/Down. Other servers are 30 less in 
terms of ping at least.

When I play from home, I get 80-120 ping, other games 18-30.

Debian Etch 2.6.22

I hope this can be fixed soon :(
