Ok,
Your specs seem more than adequate. Let start with the wireless. Can you move your computer near your modem and plug in directly? Or if you have a long lan line (I keep a 50 ft line for no reason at all).

Let me know how it goes and we'll go from there.

no i cant, and i dont have a lan line, probably would have to be at least 50 feet though, how much would that cost?

$20 - $25 ... tops, for a good quality cable.

I ran a 50 footer to my kids room rather than install wireless...worth the small cost and effort to run it. Cool

Wireless gaming is not often a good experience...ask Chance! Wink

The best way to do this is start ruling things out. Maybe you can get one from Comp-USA or PC-Club and return it after the test. They are pretty liberal with their return policy.

BTW does CS give you problems?

Also to test your ISP provider try running the tools here:

http://www.dslreports.com/tools

They have some free ones to check speed and quality of your connection.

Another way to see if it's your system or connection is start your own server. Get on and cause some havoc. If you can get some one on with you even better. If you have problems with no one on its definitely your system.


Good Luck

So lets get this straight;

You started a server and 2 people joined and no problems... Thats wierd.

That means your connection is good and your system is good. Leaving only a couple suspects:

1. Ram, but 1 gig is plenty.

2. Settings - can you use all generic config settings? See if you can back up all your config settings to a seperate folder and use ALL default settings. Maybe you changed somthing wierd like gib_count or one that chips mentioned.

Try playing again.

3. Time - Make sure there are no other users on your WIFI. Can you lock it temporarily to test it?

Good Luck

well after about 4 minutes of running the server, it just went crazy and the pings never settled below 700ish so i had to shut it down. however me and another person spamming like crazy from a spawn on congestus isnt the same as 8v8 on ksour or something, so i cant be completely certain unless i am able to pull alot more people however i only get 384 for upload so i couldnt handle that big a load anyways.

No that's long enough. If you have no problems alone it's definatly not your video card or computer.

The only two left are your WIFI and configs. Is there anyway you can use a default config?
