Used the TCPOptimizer, on Pingtest.net went from 73 Ping to 43-49
with 0% packet loss. Possible to get better results? Used the optimal settings and compared to test yesterday. Did have to reformat virus on another site (music site)
Getting massacred by few playing Halo, so much faster upload resonse...49 bit higher farther away server-but higher Jitter on this server?

thnx. on it now, tried Win 7 but Nvidia drivers headaches....as well as Soundmax, MS did offer SM in updates.
Patches work ok and reversible if not?

You wont do much with ping, test again tomorrow and the next and such and it will fluctuate a bit.
Thers very little you can do about ping from your end.

Using program D/L great, like to have bit better Upload but being happy with what you got a good thing. seems pings up-down, maybe Xmas holiday nodes loaded? Have the phone-internet-tv bundle great services phone my fav.
Just don't D/L much, upload (Gaming) most important....
Happy Holidays!

Gaming doesn't use high bandwidth, it just needs low latency. For gaming I'd rather have a 1/2 meg low latency connection than a 10 meg average connection. No online games use more than 1/4 a meg per player.

Stonecat you are right
, I'll go back to basics in days on Unreal. I can lower latency, I've defeated my purpose increasing D/L for higher latency. Time to cough down tweak MTU, slower D/L but thats fine.
Just got idea on setting I tweak dial up at...

That lower mtu thing i would think it's a myth but could be wrong the reason being is this i could be wrong if you lower the mtu you are not fully utlizing the amout of packets if a network is set a 1500 mtu and you set computer to let's use 1452 it could cause more latency just due to convergence.
I could be wrong maybe yeold/phillip could shed light on this one.

Not sure but, seems steady pings of 40's from server that was in high 140's now. Fairly happy with results. Even though not optimized for u/l-d/l pings better at lower settings.
