[CS:S] Any ping reducing tips?

[Jase]

I've noticed that a lot of people have pings around 50-100, and they are the players who have been playing for ages..

So is there anykind of way to reduce your ping? :P

I'm sorry for not answering your question, but what is ping? Sometimes when I go into a server it says "Your ping is over 100. Reduce it or you will be kicked" :S

Its very complicated so all i can say is...

The higher the ping, the worse you are. If your ping is high (350-999) you are causing lag to the other players so you will be kicked :P

Its all bout internet connection speeds, locations of servers etc

Dont download? Hmm whats your internet speed? My ping is around 17-40 when i play...

[Jase]

My ping on average would be 30, dunno what my internet connection is but i've got aol platinum. Also, I have 1Gb RAM.

If you close everything that uses the internet, and get anyone else using your connection to stop using things, then your ping should be 30-70.

use the filters to get a server close to ur location

Just as Nintendo said, close everything else that uses the internet, like P2P/torrent programs, MSN, Antivirus update software.

All you need to run is Steam. Which doesn't help, as it does stuff in the background too.

[Jase]

I close all of my programs when i play, leaving 4 programs that are important.

It might be because i have 256mb ram? I'm getting a 512 soon

Nah, it's todo with your connection speed. You should see if you could get a faster internet connection.

I hate it when u get kicked because of ping/latency. All i do is close all the programs running its the easiest way.
