1. First step is to Download this great program called
PPP-BOOSTER. That program will increase your
PPP Protocool connection rate to your ISP. In other
words its good.

2. Once you download that program install it then run it.

3. Once the program is open, look for a button called
"backup", then store the backed modem file in a
directory you will remember. Then once thats done, click
all the options below to "Recommened". Then click OK
once done, then exit the program.
DO NOT RESTART YOUR COMPUTER YET!

4. Next step is to click Start....... Then Settings.....Controll
Panels..... then Modems......

5. When your in Modems click your existing modem then
"Properties"... Then look for a little Tab called
"Connection"...... then look for "Port Settings" then
you will see two little Sliders. Turn them BOTH
ALL THE WAY DOWN!!! If you turn them all the way
down it will give you less Buffers, which is good for
Quake. The less buffers the less the Ping and Packet Loss.

(Optional) Click OK then click "Advanced" which is to the right of
Port Settings. Then look for the box called Use Error
Control, then turn that off. Click ok Then Restart your
computer.

6. The last step is to connect to the Internet then join a
nice game of TF or any other Mod in QuakeWorld.

==HAVE FUN GUYS!!!==

The method of decreasing your ping (as shown above) works most
effectivelly if you have Mindsping Internet Service

NOTE: If you experiance ANY difficulties with your modem, I am not held
responsible. I would recommend that you reset all your settings to the default
they were meant to be on. I have had NO cases in which that incident has
happend.
