I think I got it figured out! Reaver is going to laugh his ass off when he reads this, so let's go. I did a thorough test.

First I needed to know if my connection to the server was ok, so I trace routed the IP in dos prompt.
The highest value was 164, which is decent enough for good game play. The connection is good.

Second step I made 2 installs of renegade. Fresh new installs.
On one I installed the latest TT (special version from StealthEye that doesn't boots my system).
On the second I installed CP2.

I tested how my game play on CP2 was on that server. Still laggy but less. I could walk around corners but when I jumped around like a toad on a hot plate I would ice skate still. I could get into vehicles pretty well though, not had to hug it for a while before ACTION key would let me in. I tried the same with TT and it was like I described in my first post. Bad bad game play.

Then I disabled all my programs that I don't need (MSN, FireFix, etc) and tested both versions again. I could not distinguish a notable difference.

Then I checked what other programs I have running. Turns out my firewall has a game mode. I enabled that, tried both things again, still the same.

Then I thought, what the hell, disable the firewall all together, went ingame trying both installs, and TT worked better than the CP2 one! Apparently Comodo firewall keeps a close eye on TT renegade. I could get into a vehicle instantly, picked up my powerups the second I touched them and no more every so often ice skating. I hope this can fix it for others as well.

So it's not TT (indirectly yes, but not directly). Sorry guys, I was wrong in my assumptions.

EDIT: I forgot to mention. I checked my internet speed via an internet speed detector site, and it came back roughly 6 Mbit (even though I pay for 10Mbit..). Each game I set my bandwidth to 4000000 but eventually found out that 2000000 is the best setting.

Also what happened to you can change your ISP I doubt you even know what a VPN is or even a remote idea of how the Internet even works.

If I disregard the deficit of cohesion between his statements, and the lack of proper spelling and use of symbols I think I know what he was trying to say, and I lol'd. No hard feelings though Brandan Wink
