Maybe your ISP has got the shits. See if the problem remains after a day or so.

it cannot be that, other games are fine.


**Update**

I have reverted my deusex.ini back to the default one but still the same problem.

Its not the isp, mtl or .ini files, can someone post their ipdrv?

It happens to everyone from time to time. It's not Deus Ex, neither connection or computer.

I had 3000+ ping on every server through the masterservers for a while, although in-game all was fine, are your pings like that in game as well?

If you had any idea of what lag i am suffering at the moment you would know all about it. I can't do anything, play dx, or anything like that, my lag is so bad.

And [A]lex, I didn't say you were joking, I meant I was joking :?

Problem fixed, my recomendations for those who have this problem is

a.) turn off your modem/router for about 6-12 hours

b.) if dx still has high pings just wait a few days

you might want to clean this topic abit and sticky it

Your modem got overheated, buy a ADSL modem router firewall and a fan :)

That's just weird.

I had the same problem like 3 years ago, but in my case most of the pings in the list of servers were over 400-500. However when I was playing the ping was fine as usually.
