On your client have you tried setting cl_maxpackets to 100? Lowered my ping on my server from 60 to 28.<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Feb 11, 2008 3:22 AM, Matthew Driscoll <<a href="mailto:retaks@gmail.com">retaks@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br>

my server config settings like max_rate and such and still nothing<br>helps. I've tried different ports other than the standard 28960 and that<br>did nothing. My Tf2 server runs a steady 53ms whereas my Cod4 on the<br>
same box is pinging 88ms average in game, not via a server browser. So<br>yeah its about 30ms difference; about the same as you're getting. It's<br>gotta be something in the game. Maybe something with 64bit? My server is<br>
dual core operton 1210, 2gb ram, centos.<br><div><div></div><div class="Wj3C7c"><br>Naif Ahmed wrote:<br>> I am experiencing the exact same issue. Running my server on dual<br>> xeons quad core, 8gigs of ram and 10Mbps Up/Down. Other servers are 30<br>
