Darkboy you will get this message if you havent got the `latest` patches installed for mohaa, make sure you grab them and install, otherwise all you will ever get is `server timed out` msgs :>

O.k i have cable and also get timed out many times, my ping is realy good once in a game but i used to get kicked for "high ping" however i found this has more to do with my hardware than connection.
Whats worked for me is...when you get timed out bring down the console, type reconnect then enter, 9 times out of 10 it then allows me to connect to server.
Hope this helps.

dooms.

SCREEN cry: cry: cry:

Make sure you have DSL chosen as your connection type in the MP Options, and try to join servers with the lowest ping possible.

A major connection backbone for the US broke down the other day, and Im not sure if it has been fixed yet. (From what I hear it is) THis may had a part in the issue as well.

If you want to tweak your connection (At your own will), visit http://www.dslreports.com and you might want to also look into the program iSpeed.
