Dude, I just looked through most of your posts, all are about either rates or lag. We've told you about rates a million times, can't you do it yourself by now?
I'm wondering where you got those rates above from... because they are nowhere near correct.
I will tell you how to do it one more time, write it down somewhere or bookmark this page.
sv_maxrate:
B * 128 / P
B= Upload bandwidth in kbps, P= amount of players you wish to host. (if the outcome is above 30000, set sv_maxrate to 30000 because that's the max.)
sv_minrate:
allow 56k < 4000 < disallow 56k
sv_maxupdaterate 100 (always 100, it fits every server)
sv_minupdaterate 20 (always 20, for every server when it drops below 20 it lags, fits most servers, if you run higher ticks set this a bit higher too)
That's all there is to it

I've been trying for 2 month's and all it does is get worse, I dont know how to read those damn rate charts or w/e there called
i get it right on a pos pentium 4 with a crappy internet connect but not no Connection Dual 100Mbit NICS
and all those other pageswith my posts I can't view them this site is messed up cause all i get is can not view this page error
and that stuff you wrote above, I still don't get it and it sounds like you have a attitude problem cause I asked for help, no wonder why this site is always dead.

it doesn't really matter what speed your nic is, what is your upload speed? if it is a true 100Mb connection then why aren't you doing:
30000
5000
100
100

BADASS, I don't have any attitude problems at all.
What you might understand is that after explaining/helping or atleast I tried to you still don't seem to get it, as you got at least 10 answers from different people on these forums. I get a bit tired of telling people the same thing all over again, I'm starting to think about if they actually want to know how it works.
Look at stuff like this thorugh my eyes, I get people adding me on MSN every day asking the same stuff all over again like I'm some kind of helpdesk, I'm like ok what the heck, everyone should be able to have fun and run a server. So I help them, it costs me 2 hours at least to explain the whole thing about servers. 2 days later they come back with the same friggin question I explained 2 days ago! Like if they have amnesia or just don't want to understand in the first place. Later on, after a long chat again it appears they don't even know what a browser is?
Well so much for stuff like that, I like to help. But some people just need to get some advanced knowledge first and I'm not the one to teach that, if they would pay me I would but I'm doing all this for free.
Now please tell me what is it you don't understand, I will try to explain better if needed, although I don't se ehow at the moment, since those variables are just plain simple stuff, 3 of them are pretty much static and 1 (sv_maxrate) is simply filling in numbers and you got it.
