The server has a 1,4 Athlon and 256mb SDRam... 256kbits should be enough.. what does a HL client use for bandwidth???

Still don't mention what cpu(s) are in this thing. For a bit of reference, my friend has adsl at 1500/384kbps and that line can barely take 10 players. ADSL and cable are probably the worst way you can go to host a server. Go symetrical bandwith starting at 512kbps as a minimum or don't bother.

The server is clean, no other aps, no other servers or services that use the ADSL connection. The speed of the ADSL connection is 256kbits up and 1024kbits down. -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: Stan Hoeppner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Verzonden: woensdag 10 oktober 2001 12:05 Aan: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Onderwerp: RE: Extreme High Ping on w2k server with ADSL There are 2 possibilities. 1. Bandwidth saturation on your adsl line. 2. Resource starvation on the server. What is your outbound bandwidth rating on the adsl line the server sits behind? What other applications are you running on the server? What speed and how many CPUs in the server? Are you hosting a web site, ftp server, or mail server on that adsl line and/or the HLDS server box? If so, this could be causing either spikes in bandwidth utilization of the adsl line or CPU utilization spikes on the server. Either of these 2 things could cause the ping spikes you mention. BTW, if you're on the same LAN as the server, why are YOU pinging at 60? You should be pinging sub 20 if you're connecting to the server from your LAN. We really need more info to help you nail this down.

I'm running a HLDS on W2k with Maxplayer 15 and i tried to play with the maxrate en minrate settings but that doesn't do anything different... Any ideas???
