try this:
rate 12000
cl_cmdrate 75
cl_updaterate 60

first, try other servers. sometimes choke can be server specific, depending on whether the owner carried over server.cfg cvar's from 1.04 to 2.x.

For some reason setting:

Rate

to 4500

cl_updaterate

and

cl_cmdrate

to 1, got rid of all my PL and choke, and had no problem on gameplay. Set them around 40-ish.

JUst what it sounds like: Your line is trying to choke down more packets then it can handle.

rockst4r · October 2003

choke is the percentage of packets that gets lost while being send from you to the server.
loss is the percentage of packets that gets lost while being send from the server to you.

choke is a result of a high cmd and updaterate compared to your rate or if your connection cant handle the traffic.

12000/75/60 should be fine for adsl users
7000/40/30 for isdn users
4500/30/20 for modem users

ps: the game becomes somehow unplayable when you have a choke greater 30. change server or reduce your settings. keeping the choke at 0-10 is the only way to guarantee a registered hit in hl.
