If you want a server that looks decent from an East or West coast perspective I would look at some of the hosting companies in Texas. Have some of the East and West coast players get some trace routes to their sample servers. Usually there are decent paths to most isps from that area. Cutting down on the amount of airstrikes also could improve your ci's as well. For people that don't know most of your virus scans that do real time scanning pick up on that and attempt to scan it. The numerous airstrikes also do no favors for the dedicated server to calculate as well. If the mod your using ran decent in the past its not your mod causing the issue. Unless the mod version changed and the netcode in the newer version has changed as well. As far as the current mod if I wanted something similar to the newer cod games I would play that. Not a cod2 version with 9 year old graphics. My personal favorite is the mod playing ctf. That server was fantastic and like crack back at its peak. One sample company. tracert to the texas locations http://webehostin.com/games.php Awards

That is the problem I have been trying to fix and if they are gone then we will know if its the host or the mod. Please report back on that Rugger, I believe I mentioned in the other thread that the CI's have been greatly reduced but aren't gone. Not sure what everybody else is experiencing because I haven't been on much due to my high ping. The CI's have dropped off quite a bit on all servers as far as I can tell, not just the new one. I think the CI issue is something that all hosting companies are experiencing right now. I have a couple other clan servers loaded up on my HLSW just to watch the latency and they're seeing the same thing we are, regardless of mod or hosting company. As I look at my HLSW screen while I type this (early Monday morning), all of our COD2 servers have a flat line with no CI's of any kind. That probably has more to do with reduced traffic on the web than anything else. Since you have started the new server my ping on there hasn't gone below 100 and is usually around 150 with frequent spikes over 300, but right now it's down in the mid 70's, again probably due to reduced traffic. I want the DM server to work well for the majority of people who play there. For all of the years I've been with XI I have always experienced a higher ping than most other players and I've dealt with it. If the ping stays high for me then I'll just play when I can on XI and hang out on TDM or other game servers with a lower ping. In the mean time lets hope that the changes you've made work for our regular players so they have all of the features they want with a steady ping. Awards

I have been on the new DM Server a few times now and have not really seen any CI'S . The few times that I have been in there was only few people playing. I would like to see how it is with a full house. As for the ping I can't complain at all. My ping is in the mid 30's at times. Window Awards

It's been low and steady ever since then. Not even a hiccup. I hope it stays like this. Awards
