Title: Need help setting up my OpenArena for use with cell phone / usb modem
Post by: SlippJigg on December 23, 2007, 06:25:17 PM
Hello,
  I was wondering if anyone had any tweaks for better bandwidth usage, to help improve my ping.  I connect to the internet by hooking a Verizon Cell Phone to my pc via USB.  After that you just connect with a dialer (i use KPPP - PCLinuxOS 2007 user).  My ping now is 175-200 which is too high to play online.

I was just hoping someone had some tweaks, let me know!

Thanks,
SlippJigg

Hello,
You can have a look at this : http://ucguides.savagehelp.com/Quake3/connection.html (URL well hidden in OA wiki).
It applies to Q3, but it's the same with OA.
I'm not sure it will improve your ping significantly.
