Change maxrate to sv_maxrate 0
Make sure on your client you have... rate 50000 (this will probably reset every time you restart the game) cl_cmdrate 67 cl_updaterate 67 Your rate is probably dropping down to your server's minimum, which is 9000. I don't know what kind of slots you have, but if you have a 32 slotter 9000 is nowhere near enough bandwidth @ 45-67 update rate. Try a sv_minrate of 15000-20000 for best effect on the server side. You're limiting clients to a high update rate, limit them to a high rate as well to improve overall satisfaction!
