Problems with config checks.

Ok, since escaping the wrath of the horrid WSAEINTR error, I now stumble upon a new problem. On the same server I play, they recently turned on their config checker. Ok, I ususally ping about 250 on this server, and when this config check runs I end up pinging at 999 for about 20 seconds. This happens about every minute or so. So, I ususally end up two ways A) Dead from lag B) Kicked by the same script that caused me to lag out. Any solutions (besides getting a better connection).

Get a better...oh nevermind.

No really what are the rest of your system specs?

you shouldnt be pinging that high - try playin on servers closer to your country....u might be playin on some server in afganistan

Actually, the server is in our country. I don't know why it makes me ping so bad when it checks my config. I think it's because of all the custom maps and such in my main folder that might be locking it up. I don't know what to do. Heh.

dont forget you are only using a 45.2 kps modem and the minimum system requirements need a 56k modem this maybe why you are lagging so much, i know you told no-one to say it but you can pick up a 56k modem for about £20/ $50 and even if you get one thats v.90 then your ping will be about 120-150 'cos thats what i was getting with my modem from server's in my country.

I have no idea if my [local] ISP supports v.90. Recently, I've been getting my WW2 kicks off Day of Defeat. Has tons more weapons than MOH or Spearhead.
