    Could be a bottleneck in the Internet, Spyware, Torrents or other Downloads, ect. For best performance, don't have anything downloading while you play. Also, anything that updates every so often (Desktop weather programs, itunes, virus protection, a million other little programs) can in combination cause you to lag, so just try to keep things to the bare minimum.

    it really sucks balls when your ping is variable though
    just when you get adapted, it fucking changes and screws everything up

    yea i know.. but my ping is like 150 minimun.. and gets to 170

    and i dont have download programms running when i play.
    i do have McAfee ( anti virus ) on.. but it doesnt scan things when i play
    maybe i have something downloaden from another server which has turned my ping up?
    maybe somthing in the main map?

    maybe u should delete all downloaded maps from other servers except from uan and try again.. maybe that will work

    doesnt matter if it doesnt scan.. it is still using valuable ram.. mine uses 24,000 kb +.. close down your AV and im sure you will get less lag.. then when done gaming just turn it back on

    get rid off McAfee and get Kaspersky.....

    uhm i still have 135 ping and thats fine by me.. dont know why it has changed by you, maybe it could be something in your cod2 settings.. like which connection you have selected

    i had kaspersky , but it was a very strong anti virus programm.. it wouldnt download a few things for cod2 because " they could be dangerous" lol.

    i got my internet connection at the highest. i think thats DSL or something
    my cod2 settings are:

    1024x768
    4x anti aliasing
    billiniear
    direct x7
    texture are all "extra high"


    and i got nvidia gefroce 6600 something..

    i mean at multyplayer options and than connection, you can choose between ISDN or LAN/Cable/DSL. dont know if that works but you can try

    you are such a retard

    drop it to "high" as well as make sure your AV is off.. ive got 2 gigs of ram and running AV slows down mine.. so 1 gig would do the same

    i dont run any antivirus or antispyware on my gaming box
    if you must run one i would suggest Symantec corporate edition as it only uses about 4MB RAM (34MB with realtime protection on)

    on my server (from which i am writing this) i have these tasks running and still game without a problem:

    whatpulse
    autokick
    azureus
    peerguardian
    msn live messenger
    no-ip responder
    blackice server edition
    tightvnc server
    ip gateway emailer
    apache, php, mysql
    daemon tools
    lexmark print server
    symantec corp
    filezilla ftp server
    VIA RAID monitor
    vmware server

    lol and firefox uses more ram than all of those put together (140MB)

    all this on a pentium D 3.4GHZ 1GB DDR2 NV 7800GTX AGP 2X320GB SATA RAID 0

    Ugh Pentium D! XO

    Anyways, drop the anti aliasing, because you simply wont be able to tell the difference when running DirectX 7 anyways. 90% of lag in games is brought about by ones settings. The first thing you should always try is to simply drop everything you can to the lowest settings possible so that you can truly determine if it is your pc or your connection.

    In this event however, it sounds like your connection. DSL = Fail.. Cable and Fiber Optic = Win...
