try jolt or when you enter a server it should say or normally says who its off or check the servers list for names and do some research

[InSomNia]

Best australian servers are Optus CTF , GamingSA CTF.

Umm, the point is so people can play without lag. Unless you have a T3 or higher in your room.

It cracks me up when newbies make servers from their cable boxes in their room hehehe.

Try here, great place and great prices!

30 people on a cable modem? come on man, I did not play my first video game yesterday.
You are not going to sit there and tell me with a straight face you hosted a 30 man server from your room with a cable box, and had a lag free game.
I do not buy it.
Please post your upload speed please. I would love to see it.
What did you cap the players rate at?
I have been on many cable hosted servers and the lag is just horrid.
Cable is good for 8 or 10 MAX, and even then it is laggy with a lot of action.


No offense but, Do you have any idea what you are talking about?

well it wasnt lag free there were occasional spikes but not bad enuf not to be able to play through i dunno y but my router for some reason is able to amplify by speeds so i host on one comp and play on the other also keep in mind that the only thing on the hosting comp is sof nothing else

[beef flaps]

I don't know about the amplified speeds, but post your upload speed for me please.

Renting a gameserver is a great thing. They are on fast OC pipes and dedicated machines. Your players will usually have zero lag and can up their rate to the max.
There are many many advantages of renting a server over setting one up in your room.
Besides, the prices are pretty reasonable these days.

go to www.dslreports.com/stest or another upload test place and run the speed test.
Post the link here please. I am curious what yours is. What cable CO do you have?

ok my download speed is 1226 kbps and my upload speed is 879 kpps the link to my results is http://www.dslreports.com/speedtests...com/1062031772

and what does cable OC mean? thanks for the link man, i dont really host that often i just run a tutorial server when a new map comes out i allow up to 30 ppl including myself and everyone spectates me (i find it easier that way people can c what i c and nobody gets left behind with 30 ppl its like teaching class) and i show all the secrets on the map including ways to get on roof, teleporters, and so forth this might be the reason that i had only occasional lag spikes because nobody was playing except myself and everyone was spectating
