Kick the shit out of your PC
Kick the shit out of your ISP
Do random tracerouts to
- i4games.eu
- bbc.co.uk
- some AU site
- some US site
- some other non-european site
and post them
Last of all Give up playing UT

Maybe so, But there can still be other things on your PC shagging your connection.

A traceroute wouldn't say much. Do a ping -t gs1.i4games.eu in the cmd box. Let it go for about ten minutes. Then do the same to another site in europe (e.g. www.nu.nl) and also one in the UK like dano said.

If you have pl on all sites it's your ISP. If the sites in Europe have pl, then it's the connection from the UK to the main land. If it's only i4g then it's the connection i4g has.

Agreed. But it would only show you one 'ping' to each hub it passes. To detect pl it's not as good as a continuous ping.
What you also good do is do a traceroute and then ping all the hub you pass. A lot of qork though Smile
