Ping spikes

[killaAlienz]

for some reason the server works fine but sometimes i get ping spikes

it happens with home connections.. could be a lot of things though. it could be just the plugins on the server, it could be your rates are configured bad, it could be just your internet as well. also, if you don't have sv_downloadurl for map downloads, it could be that people are downloading stuff off the game server and making it lagg for everyone.

um could u give me optimal rates for 350kb's download and 100kb's upload?? thnx

mmm thats difficult, thats kind of a low upload.. i would suggest keeping the rates low, you will probly have to experiment with how low can you go without causing other problems, like loss and choke.

off the top of my head maybe like a sv_maxrate of something like 3000, and be sure the minrate is under that a lot, like 500 or soo. the updaterate should be higher then the tick, so if its 66 tick then like 70 or so, if its 33 tick then like 40 or 50. and the minupdate rate should be like 5 or something really low.

but really your just going to have to do a lot of trial and error. lol.

also, on a small side note.. could you please make your avatar a little smaller, thats so big it compresses the side that actually matters, thanx.
