OH man, I am having a horrible time. I can barely play renegade anymore. I can join a server and play for a minute or two, then BAM!!! My ping is over 4000. Sometimes it maxes out at 9999. Its random and I dunno why or how its happening! HELP!

ROFL!! sorry to laugh at your expense but I can't even comprehend trying to play with a ping of 9999,,

56k isn't THAT bad, 56k might give you a ping as high as 600 but usually it'll be in the 400s.

Actually, I have a cable modem connection. Laptop is less than a year old and it only started happening after I got home from a trip.

Computer:
Athlon XP3000
512MB RAM
60gig HD


I never had this problem b4 I left, but I came back (no changes of any sort) and it doesn't like me. It is soooo bad! My character moves for me, I dont even have to touch keys. As for ping at 4000+, I can lag kill like you wouldnt believe and nobody even shoots me. Its like Im not even there.

I still cant stand it and I dunno how to fix this problem. Im gonna check again and see if its still as bad. If I dont make another post, the answer is yes and I still need help!

Thanks!

Could this be a problem with renguard? One thing I notice thats different is that when I start up RG, I connect to serv1. Before, I always connected to server 2 or 3. This problem is really bugging me. I cant even play the game anymroe.

RenGuard is not the source of your problems.

No. Seriously. No.

It could be the server you are playing on itself.

I dont think its the server cause it happens with every server. Any other ideas?

Do you have a router? If you have one reset it and your modem by unplugging them. That may help to get a new connection. It may also be your ISP. If your ISP has a website check to see if they have made any changes to the service you currently use or if they were doing any upgrades or maintenance that may have affected you. You could also phone your ISP's tech support and ask them to run a diagnostic of your line to see if there are any external problems.

Here's another thought: do you scan for adware/spyware?
