standard ping test vs actual ingame ping - increase

[redbone]

I'm running a server and for some reason I have ~25ms+ latency increase when comparing a standard "ping" command to the actual in game latency. Normally I ping 39ms-42ms when pinging my server from a command line. In game I'm getting 65ms+. Any ideas how to reduce this? The server is a p4 3.0ghz with 1 gig of ram connected to an ATT MIS T1 at my work.

I'm running:
c:\progs\steamserver\srcds.exe -console -pingboost 3 -tickrate 33 +fps_max 600 -game cstrike -secure -port 27015 +maxplayers 16 +map de_dust2 -autoupdate

Here is my config:

are you getting any loss and choke? if not, I wouldn't worry about it too much. If you are, then adjust your clients rate settings (rate, cl_rate, cl_cmdrate). Also, if you search this forum, someone posted a link to a thread in the steam forums that has some good info on setting sv_max/min
