i wiped out my kubuntu installation in favor of archlinux.. i dont regret (yet), then i installed openarena from the aur (arch user repo), added my backed up maps, mods and config from my old .openarena folder and everything is fine. but i got one small problem: everytime i want to enter a multiplayer game it takes up to 30 seconds to connect..it does not matter which server i choose..and you know 30 seconds is a long time when youre used to join immediatly
.. once in game my ping is normal and i dont see any connection problems. i tried to mess with arch's network settings, but i couldnt solve the problem.
(im using dhcp)
edit: here is the ouput from terminal:
