    I used to get 140 on the servers with nolimits, but to be honest it seems everyone has had their ping hacked to death, it's probably Eircon up to their old tricks, nothing new I suppose but sure anyways.

    I use Error Control:Compress Data ticked
    And Flow Control:Hardware
    Nil Desperandum

    eircom is also really ****edup for me.

    In Quake3, on com_maxfps 120 on some servers eircom spikes to 999 and stays there. On com_maxfps 100, it comes back to 40/50. Anyone know wtf is up with that ? On some servers its fine, on others it's wierd (like vishnu and barrysworld).
