Hi.

I get very high packet loss with quake3 excessive.
Unknown if it is the same with normal quake3.

Packet loss is more 30 percent.
Other players on the same servers have less the 2 percent at the same time.
It is like this for months, or even longer, not just a temporary busy
network.
I use fedora core 6.
With eurodocsis cable modem.
I have no other problems with my internet cable.

Any idea how to solve this ?

Thanks :-)

Ping the game server in a terminal to tell it's not just Q3. Of course
that's ICMP - not the UDP Q3 likes.

Trouble with other excessive servers too?
