Hi! could anyone please tell me if this is good ping times :/ Because ive just got rid of my broadbandphone so i got no high interleave rate anymore.

Hop 1 is way too high, check/uncoil/replace cables, or move the router way from other electrical devices.

The pingtest show that i got ping: 25ms jitter: 1ms and 0% packet loss.

I did tracert to where i think they get there server hosted from(gametracker.com).. Because it didnt work to do tracert directly to the ip.

Anyway the ip to server is 87.96.204.6:27015 and homepage is counter-snakes.se

Well the problem is that i still get this strange choke in cs :/ tomorrow im going to try a new network cable and move my router, maybe that will help.

Should i really not use cablenuts at all? just the tcpoptimizer?

Don't do the trace to gametracker.com do it to 87.69.204.6 you don't need to apply the port.

u can set Cablenut "DefaultSendWindow" and leave other Cablenut settings as is / blank

i need speedtest result to recommend Cablenut "DefaultSendWindow" setting.

hop 14-30 was server side problem, nothing we can do

Post the trace's to the other server's you've tried please.

As of now it doesn't look like its your issue but issue's on the server's side. Also if you know it post the location of the servers your trying to play on in relation to yours.

Hm i got no idea about the location.. In cs u cant see how far away the server is :S But i always try to play on swedish server because i live in sweden :)

But i got 1 question. After i done as you said with all my internet tweaks akbarri it look like this in cablenut:
Image

Shouldnt it be better for my internet if i used the blank settings too? Once a guy in this homepage (speedguide.net) told be the best settings for my internet should be:
Image

So then maybe it will be best if i keep the settings you told me and just fill in the blanks with the settings he wrote for me :) ?

Thanks everyone for your help!

So which should i pick :P and/or i could also try the settings that the cablenut homepage calculator tell me to use:

I really hope you can recommend something for me because im so confused :D

Ps: in the calculator i wrote my dl is 8000kbps ul 1000kbps and latency 29ms

Pic1 = stable DL/UL (88% from ads speed), stable pingtest, good tracert
Pic2 = unstable DL/UL (could get higher DL but lower UL), unstable pingtest (could get better jitter or worse ping), not bad tracert

i still bet with "1st pic" but i see that u could get 12.05Mbps speedtest
so i change TCPO settings to

7.01 0.86 30
7.01 0.78 32

Ping
0% 24 0
0% 25 1

Test4:

9.76 0.48 28
8.02 0.87 30
8.52 0.74 28

Ping
0% 26 1
0% 25 1
0% 25 0

Tracert:

AND the winner is!!! Test1 (i guess :P)

ps. It's wierd that i can get more than 8mbit dl because i cant even pay for higher.. :O 8mbit is the highest i can get where i live right now ^^

the winners:
stable DL/UL, stable pingtest, good tracert = Test 1
highest DL (but unstable DL/UL), not bad pingtest, not bad tracert = Test 4

use settings that suit with u

this is why u could get more than 8Mbps :

BDP (bytes) = total_available_bandwidth (KBytes/sec) x round_trip_time/RTT (ms)

example :
1st settings i put
TCP Receive Window = 256960

let say
Latency = 200ms

so ur estimate max DL speed
256960/200ms = 1284,8 * 8 = 10278,4 kbps = 10,3 Mbps

cause Latency is Variable value that why DL/UL speed also Variable

let see if
Latency = 500ms
256960/500ms = 513,92 * 8 = 4111,36 kbps = 4,1 Mbps (bad DL hah)

(u can easely read TCP Analyzer => BDP limit)
hope it help :D

Hm maybe i should use test4.. Because the difference was the unstable dl but it was never below 8mbps so it was actually always higher dl than test1..
http://www.j79zlr.com/cablenutXP2k.php <--- that's the calculator i used.. The settings i should choose/write there is dsl with router, dl 8000kbps, ul 1000kbps and latency 200ms right?

I really don't think the problem is on your end dude, I think its within the network route. I'd talk to the tech support for your ISP and see what they can do and perhaps try other servers.
