Ok this all of a sudden, has been happening to me. My ping even on low ping servers are jumping from 80 to a whooping 600!. Has a evil admin some how changed my upload/download settings in halflife? because as you can see here my download is not the same as my upload its wayyy off. Can someone help me fix this?. Thanks.

Edit: also my upload stays at about a constant 20 or so while the "in" jumps up and down like a jack russel terrer 100 to all the way up into the 200's

    Steam did this to many people.
    Drop the console and use the commands "rate" and "cl_cmdrate" and "cl_updaterate" to check your settings - post those along with your internet connection type and we'll be able to advise. Or go to steams "settings/internet" tab and select the right connection type.

    My connection is Shaw Cable, cable modem

    All this stuff I got ingame:

    Rate is "9999"
    cl_updaterate is "20"
    cl_cmdrate "30"


    also this has been happening before this problem is my mic, before 3.0 people could hear me fine, now it studders like im rapidly pressing my mic button. its not hardware because Teamspeaks works soo well (people keep saying im too loud when my mic vol is low lol)

    also thanks again for the help <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    well I set rate to 7500
    and cmdrate and updaterate to 30 and my voice still stops and goes like im tapping the mic key, although I havent tested my ingame ping yet. I just dont understand this, my mic worked fine in ver 2.0 and in teamspeak...

    edit: my ping seems to be fine now but my mic still wont work properly. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Steam, Settings, Internet and from there you select the correct internet connection type i guess.
