You guys are complaining if you get pings in 80?

I'm happy if I get 150.

I freeze every so often at the most important possible moment in Team Fortress 2.

I know your pain.

It's usually hit or miss when it comes to solving games issues from what I've observed...

Exactly. If your ping is 80 to 300 your fine. Anyone saying that you need a super low ping doesn't know what their talking about. It's not a huge factor. What is a factor is the pipe you have there, I.E your ISP... Is it crappy DSL for example? Always plagued by latency issues. Do you have all kinds of crap going out on the Internet while playing? Like widgets and what have you. Any P2P applications running on other computers? Etc, etc, etc....
