I'm new to Q3 online. When playing online, the icon at bottom right of screen says connection interrupted but my ISP is still connected.Do I need to make adjustments to the game? Thanks in advance.

You can also try Gamespy and/or Pingtool to find servers that you ping descently. (If you aren't using them already.)

And as Grumpy said, the rate command can affect your donnection quality ingame very much. (Haven't tried "snaps" myself.)

/snaps is very cool, fixes ALL probs between modem2modem conections. Me and a friend fucked with that cmd on the w/end now we can shoot the plasma at each other for about 10 secs before it (the connection) dies!!!

Which is kinda bad i think, you need to tweak the game tto be able to properly use a weapon in multiplayer in a multiplayer only game!?

It really depends what the lag-o-meter is doing at that moment wether you bump them up or down also cl_maxpackets. go to my page (click my sig) under variables you'll find a description of the lag-o-meter and what those colors mean and how to tweak it. admin central also has a lag-o-meter guide up on their site as well made by Zxel.
