Well I found out the problem was coming from having a peice of crap modem n the first place. My tweaking just hurt it more and it finnally gave in and said "screw you, Im giving you lag and PL now."
I ordered a USR Internet Gaming Modem tonight and should have it by friday. Im also looking into isps. I've heard that since im a 56ker, I should go with Mindspring or Earthlink... what are your views on thses providers?
As for playing UT, I wont be playing until I have the new modem installed and running. I feel myself getting rusty already... god like bots aren't anything compared to haveing a bunch of |C| players charge at you.
And for my RA match with gunner. I think a rematch is in call for. Dragon, you and I all know I can play much much better than that if my connection is good. So can we get a rematch?

If I'm not mistaken, Earthlink actually bought Mindsrping. But anyway, I had Mindspring a year or two ago and I was very happy with them. I got decent pings and played Unreal1 and Halflife with my 56k. Not saying they are good everywhere but in my area I did have good luck with them. Good luck with your new modem.

Earthlink did buy Mindspring (or they merged and decided to keep the Earthlink name).

I've got Earthlink (but still an @mindspring.com email), and a 56k and I get plenty of decent pings. I would recommend them to anyone. I had a lot of local ISP's before them, but they're a lot better.
