Ping question

Postby Nomad » Sun Nov 30, 2003 4:05 pm

when I play AA on line most of the time I am getting Pings around 50 while I see other players anywhere from 100 and up. I've enabled ping in the Device manager but it has no effect. Puter is in my sig. Any Ideas or thoughts. The game plays fine and when I start to lag so does everybody else (I've asked).
Thanx in advanced.....Oh yea OS is XP home

usually, depending on how the servers are set up, you want your ping to be the same as the hosts ping, unless their computer is the server, under which circumstance, the lower the better.
