RE: pings went from good to not good w/ no solution
try a tracert. If your ping is high on your first hop, then something is wrong iwth your comp. Else you will see it shoot up somewhere in the line. A friend of mine who runs a server 30 miles from my house used to give me a steady 50-60ms ping. Then Speakeasy(evil company) moved his POP from LA to Seatle. He lives in san diego. So now instead of my signal traveling about 300miles round trip it I going about 2000miles and giving me a 120ms ping. -Original Message- From: Joshua Davis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, September 29, 2001 3:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: pings went from good to not good w/ no solution Yeah, I'm running HL 1108a and CS 1.3, but the problem started before installing those.

Yeah, that's the only problem.. I found some hops that are bad, but what can you do.

Re: pings went from good to not good w/ no solution
Do a tracert and check which hops are bad! A few got infected(nimda) and produced bad latency. I know of 2-3 qwest hops and 2-3 alter.net were bad and slowed people on my server down. You have to wait for them to fix their hops. - Original Message - From: "Joshua Davis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, September 29, 2001 3:20 PM Subject: pings went from good to not good w/ no solution > > I am running a CS server with 1108a .. > DSL 384K/s up and down. > My clan members with cable would normally get pings of > 40-80.

Yeah, I'm running HL 1108a and CS 1.3, but the problem started before installing those. The server is a P3 650 w/256MB of ram. I have pinged my clan mates, and the ping time is the same inside and outside of the game. I have a feeling that the problem is with our ISPs and different networks..

RE: pings went from good to not good w/ no solution
CS server? Are you currently running HLDS 1108 and CS1.3? If so, what speed is the CPU of the server? CS 1.3 uses about 20-30% more CPU cycles than 1.1 did, if I recall the posts from Valve correctly. Check your CPU utilization on the server when it's full. If it's averaging 70 to 80% or higher, this is probably the reason for the higher pings. The cause is the additional code added to CS 1.3 to fix the hitbox errors. It's very CPU intensive. Also, perform some ICMP ping tests between the clients and the server, and see if the return times are similar to the in-game ping. If the in-game ping is much higher than the ICMP ping, this is due to your CPU being loaded.

pings went from good to not good w/ no solution
I am running a CS server with 1108a .. DSL 384K/s up and down. My clan members with cable would normally get pings of 40-80. I got the code red virus on the server, got rid of it, and everything was back to normal. One day About 2-3 weeks ago I decided to look for the Half life update (Sierra Utilities). This was about 5 days before 1.3 came out. It found an update for HL from 1106 to 1107. I installed that. I don't know if that was why, but ever since then all my clan mates have pings above 100 w/lag. I contacted my ISP they ran tests and tweeked everything. I don't think it's me, because I get players from Canada and NY connecting with pings around 60. (I'm in Va, USA) My clan mates live a few miles from me. I would like to blame the problem on their ISP and the networking/routes. Anyone know what might be the problem? I have full antivirus that I update daily, and I have reinstalled HL and CS on the server. I was about to re install all the software on the server, but my ISP said it was most likely a connection thing. Please help, Pno 64.83.11.10:27016 __ Do You Yahoo!? Listen to your Yahoo!
