so normally i pull up the server list, sort by ping, and pick one from the lowest 20 servers i got, usually 0-30 ping, by the time i log on, it gets to be from 50 down to the occasional single digit
tonight however, i keep getting kicked before i can spawn for "high average ping" in 150's and up, after logging on to a server that was single digit ping on the list (how you can have a reliable average in the first 5 seconds im not sure), i had not changed my vid settings since last time i played trouble free, in fact i've lowered it since i started experiencing the issue. the only difference i could think of was that i updated to the new Norton sys works and IS when my scrip expired, could this be related? anyone else experience this with norton? I'm usually pleased with the product, it's stopped more than a few hacks, and have not had issues with it interferiing wiht my online play in the previous 10 years i've used it.
ps, i even manage to maintain a lower than 50 lag on some servers, yet shoot like an epileptic seizing on a mechanical bull
