Hello every body...

Ok pls i need help on this connection...

Ok ill give you a run down on what the set up is..

Line -> with longish line cord to Modem.. Modem -> (56k Faxmodem External US Robotics) to PC via Serial Port.

Connection speed, now I dont know if this I relevant to the connection but... I have 2 other phones around the house 1 up stairs.. and one downstairs.. now when I plug out the phone from the socket up stairs I can get a connection of 50k - 52k when I plug the phone back in again I get about 45k to 48k with my connection.

Now the main problem isnt downloading or browsing when im at 52k they are very nice... the problem is.. Lag on servers.. using most isps.. it is VERY jumpy.. it sticks and flows again and jumps.. and when i ping servers in dos tho it seems okish ..


Ping server cs.irelandcs.com:27015 at 52k on eLive.

120
118
111
107


No packet loss in there, or iregular pings like

120
109
562
189.

But when im on the server ping goes like...

180
190
300
500
700
to
180 again.

Then when im rushing or there is loads of people around on the screen when im firing it goes 180 190 400 700 900 1200 and drops then again when im dead..

My Pc I would think is handy enuf... P3 500 128RAM TNT2 32 RAM


So whats the story? I have tried most isps and they all give same results really when im pinging them in DOS they seem fine but in game they are very jumpy and sticky.. not stable at all.

You do not know how much it would help to get this sorted out so thx very much if you have any thing that you might have to help..

Cheers.
