Yep, same here. The Pm3 is not loved by our quakers.... yet. I am hopeing
that the 56K modems will allow for better ping times. We also get about 1
to 5% packet loss during quake games using the pm3 while the pm2's dont
lose any. I think we get quake ping times around 120 for the pm2 and just
over 200 with the pm3.
