As for the first it looks like you might not have your server
splitting larger packets, what are your settings for the following:
sv_maxrate
sv_minrate
sv_minupdaterate
sv_maxupdaterate
sv_mincmdrate
sv_maxcmdrate
net_splitpacket_maxrate
net_splitrate
Only ones i've set in server.cfg is min and maxrate, 5000 and 0
(unlimited) respectively.
Rest are default, which for me is
sv_minupdaterate 10
sv_maxupdaterate 66
sv_mincmdrate 10
sv_maxcmdrate 66
net_splitpacket_maxrate 15000
net_splitrate 1
Check the clients settings too.
If you look at the pictures, the right hand side (section 7 from valve's
page here https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/TF2_Network_Graph)
top to bottom these are requested cl_updaterate, actual update rate from
server, cl_cmdrate and actual sent.
In both pictures, he's set to 100 - which is pointless in TF2 and
obviously that means he's changed his settings and therefore questions
his settings being correct.
Since his values are higher than you have sv_max values set to he's
likely to see some choke even when there isn't actually choke (described
on page above)
But the 2nd figure down is far less than 66 - that's the problem.
If you connect to the server (and set your client to something like
rate 60000
cl_updaterate 66
cl_cmdrate 66
Does your right hand side of net_graph show 66/66/66/66 ? If so, the
server may be fine.
I wonder if he has a low rate setting though, especially with you
allowing such a low min rate.
A few people on SPUF I've got to post net_graph screenshots like that,
it turned out their rate had been 10000 or less and they usually say "I
don't know where it got set that low"
I think sometimes changing your steam settings changes it (although it
usually sets my rate to 30000 not 10000 I think it's tied to the dl
speed you say you have)
I've never had to tweak or change any of TF2's sv defaults on servers I
have run to get that right hand side all showing 66/66/66/66 and zero
choke and loss when my client connects to it.
Which to me suggests you should definitely test with a client you trust
to have good settings and then if the screenshots look similar, I'd
consider it's something else other than tweaks to sv_xxx convars needed
to solve it.
