I see all the servers in my server list and the ping is about 80-100, but when I join its instantly 999 or more. The strange thing is that this only happens in 3 games 'unreal tournament,quake4,quake2' every other game works fine.
I have three computers on this network, out of them all 3 wont get the correct ping in quake2, only 1 wont get the correct ping in unreal tournament, and so far only one has been tested with qauke4 and it didnt work, its also the same one that doesnt work with unreal tournament.
My internet is 256/64 from www.connexus.net.au, my modem is netcomm nb1300. I have formated the computer that didnt run all 3 games, and I have tried 3 different network cards all didnt make any difference.
GameArena is the server I play on in hl2dm, css, quake3 and it works fine on them games. Its used as a example but all the servers in the list do the same thing.
