Problem with connection~Ping

[JasonS]

mmh...i from asia,i join a lot game but all high ping for me,any idea for me to play with lower ping player?

 

[Grega]

Well your ping is higher because you have a longer distance to connect to the server.

If there were some servers closer to you your ping would be lower.

sigh..the min i get was 200+++ and no player =.='

a) you either have around or under 1mb net, since i have my 10mb, i connect to chinese servers in some games, i merely get 100 ping.

b) As Grega said, the distance.

So my conclusion :

Get a faster net, that way you'll get lower ping, there are no other ways.
Also, you might want to put cl_cmdrate 101, cl_updaterate 101 and rate 20000 to console, that lowers ping casually, but might lower fps in some cases.
