I have this problem! when istart a ded. server on my machine for moh: SH the ping goes high!!like 200+ even Lan. get sometimes 100 ping!

but if i start a non ded. server. the ping is normal for the people who joins me! like 50 ping.

what's up with that?

Once you setup your dedicated server, try this:

In game, press the console key (~) (MAKE SURE CONSOLE IS CHECKMARKED IN OPTIONS, TOO!), and type this:

[code:2f741]set maxrate "6000"[/code:2f741] and press enter. This will set the maxrate for your server to 6000, and should decrease lag. The formula for maxrate is:

[code:2f741](Upload Speed) / 8 * (Max. Players) = Maxrate[/code:2f741]

So, [code:2f741]384 / 8 * (8) = 6, or 6000.[/code:2f741]
