WHOAH. Are you telling me an 8mbps connection in Oman costs $260 per month?

Jeez, and I thought my ISP were thieves. Well, they do have a monopoly in the country and charge $50 per month for 4mbps, but that’s nowhere near this.

prices changed !!! look to new prices http://www.omantel.om/OmanWebLib/Individual/Internet/homebroadband.aspx?linkId=3&MenuId=420

40 MB/s costs 156.047 USD per month and Unlimited !

Sorry, there are chances about 0 percent to get such a ping with your distance to EU or US servers. But don’t worry, most likely it won’t be necessary. I have played with a ping of 89 ms and all was fine, hence, (almost?) never other players complained about me.
Plus, a better connection won’t help in such “distance problems”, but you might still need a better connection.
I think if you can get a ping around 100 ms it will be fine.

a Solution is : i have to make optical fiber or Internet space in my house , it is best than ADSL , it is make me from where servers run!

example:i playing in in HHC from my country Oman , it is make me from germany !

ADSL is not good for playing multiplayer in games because it is Depends on the distance !

write in google "optical fiber"S:

I have DSL 10k but I also just get a ping of at least 150 ms or higher to US servers (I am from Germany, Europe)

i had 190 ms in some USA servers

how speed i need to be 20 ms in all servers ???

8 Mb/s ???

why battlefield 2 had better ping than freelancer ??

About more than 200 players playing" battlefield2" in my contury without problem with ping !

i think problem is in FLlistservers (GLS) , some time i get nice ping in all servers germeny and sometime in Russia !

last 5 day my ping was 1000ms in some servers , i tried with two Device contact than i got the same ping !

today i have190 ms in USA servers !

can you tell me Way Mb/s ? i had no understand what is 1mbit???

I should also add that a ping of 98ms to a server in your own country is also not great.

i don’t mean that , you have to download some program or do something in Registry !

The test you posted:

Unfortunately that is not a good enough speed to play FL well on. Most of the servers are in the USA and Europe.

speed does not change something ! , i have friend played from USA and he has bad ping !

i had test with 3,50MB/s but the ping is the same !

i have high ping in all servers , my enemys kill me in few sec because lag and admin kicking me because lag or high ping !

there is no way to fix it because i am very far from europe

here some servers :
HHC:332ms
DFLS:260ms

i think someone have idea how i can fix that and make my ping faster than now , like 60 ms .

i am still with XP too ! , i don*t like 7 or 8 !

the biggest problem ,the number of players in FL become very less

i think in 2004 players were more than 2,000 ! but today they are 300 or 400 ,

alot of servers have 0 players !

FL can survive to 2020 ?

i would some one say “yes” .

is that because ipv6 ??
