O_o You're on Ethernet, and the connection is still that throttled?
Is there anything about your ISP or home network you ought to tell us?

Perhaps there's another person on the network lagging your connection?

In the server browser, are you connecting to servers that have a red or red/yellow bar?

Judging by his story, they all must have red/yellow bars.

didn't want to make a thread for this so I'll say this here.
I hate the people with 700+ping/laggers that turn into ghosts and teleport and kill you before you can see them re-appear. =/
and nobody ever kicks them.
the game should auto kick anyone with high ping.
Not meant @ you, thread creator :)

Hola crislcx creo que te puedo ayudar yo hablo español, debe ser por la distancia pero puedes jugar en servidores de usa como los server de jamz que se llaman Server of Justice y en europa te recomiendo que juegues en los server de TyD que tiene muy buen ping, tambien puedes jugar en españa en los servers llamados Emisarios de la destruccion, ah y en servidores de brasil que estan cerca de argentina, un saludo desde españa

It goes both ways, actually.

When a player has high ping, it appears to him and to an observing player, each, that the other is warping.
You can make an attempt at minimizing this effect by experimenting with the values for smoothmove and smoothdist -- but I don't fully understand how those work. Basically (I mean very basically) they tell your client how much to "guess" about a player's position if info hasn't come from them for a while. The up-side to a high number is that you have more time to frag them before they go transparent and salute; the down-side is that when they come out of the lag spike, there's no telling where they could be.

haven't seen this "more time to get them" thing :(
servers should auto kick these people T.T
..or have servers just for them.
