Nope.  All this stuff is over my head.
We are playing Q3 on the internet and, although no one ever connects,
I think the games we make are open..  I think they report to the
master server.  I have 5M/512k speed and he has 3M/256k speed.
We are alternating using Q3offline and each being the server.
When we send to each other the receiver reports a transfer speed of
12K
I have Googled for this many times.

The closest I have found is this command.

set sv_dl_maxRate "5000"

The only trouble is that this is not a command on the Q3offline list.

Q3offline shows the server config file that it makes, but if we add
that line to the config nothing happens and it goes away after the
game.

Thanks
