    Yep, I've noticed horrible spikes on all servers for the past week or so along with an (on average) higher ping than usual.
    So many flopped rocket/grenade jumps.
    Other people I know are having the same problem.

    Maybe it's the 16Gig cap making everyone clog up the network with constant downloads?

    I'd urge anyone who likes online gaming not to subscribe to this shitty sub-standard service.
    It's the new No-Limits as far as I can see.

    I get about 20 - 22ms to clarity.jolt.co.uk About the same as boards and games2.iol.ie

    I got 83 to www.google.com
    Maybe you guys are downloading something? Kazzaa or something? Or maybe you have spyware eating your bandwith

    you must be on esatbt business rather than iol to get those pings? afaik its almost impossible to get below 29ms to jolt using any of the radsl packages. My m8s in england cant even get anything below 30ms to jolt.

    Jolt is a little higher today though. Maybe someone else is using/downloading right now.
