How far away from the server are you?
If you don't know where the servers are located, check here: http://www.game-monitor.com/search.php?vars=gamevariant=fh2&game=bf2&num=100
Or here: http://www.gametracker.com/search/bf2/?query=fh2&sort=c_numplayers&order=DESC
The first link will actually tell you the approximate distance from you to the server, but the site has only been working intermittently lately.

Ping has nothing to do with how good your pc is. If you live in the US or asia, chances are you are mostly playing on european servers (the most popular servers for FH2 are in Germany) thus giving you a high ping. If you are living in europe you should check for anything taking up internet speed (porn downloads?? ;))

200+!? Mate, that's nuthin'.
I'm in Oz, on most US servers my ping is around 300-350 (although hslan is 400+) and it spikes, anywhere up to 1000, every few minutes... :P

On a side note CannonFodder, you signed up for the AEF Oceania tournament?

Not yet...I've been putting it off until I sort out a proper connection.
The problem is running TS puts more strain on the connection and as soon as more than one person is talking, the ping jumps up... ::)
I have to do something about it soon though because this wireless POS is starting to do my head in (look at my horrible stats... :P).

Your specs are not really good..is that a laptop?

FH2 hardware requirements are above BF2 hardware requirements. You hit the requirements for BF2 only.
Your videocard is extremely outdated, 1.5 BG Ram might be insufficent, and those 2.9 GHz might be an AthlonXP 2900+.
Download and install fraps. Use it to meassure your frames-per-second when playing. You should adjust your graphics to get at least 25 fps.

Isolate the cause by starting a multiplayer game. If performance is acceptable then the network is to blame. More likely though the GPU is the primary culprit. If AGP consider a Radeon 4650. Or bite the bullet on a new system. Even integrated graphics are quite good now and exponentially better than the 5500.

1,5 Gb RAM + System is a bit to few, with w7 i have 1,5 Gb RAM + 1,5 Gb RAM for Fh2 (4GB corsair ram)

Guys, the GeForce FX 5500 512 MB is a low cost card from 2006 supporting DirectX 9.0, being slower than a GeForce 3 or a GeForce 4 TI 4200. If that rings any bell. If it really got an SLI slot and you put a Radeon 4650 into that, you'll cause a spatial distortion warped in time making us all vanish in a black hole.

Yes your specs are really bad, also there's a difference between ping and lag, and it's not related. When you lag, things will be slow, and you will have stops. When you have ping problems/internet you will see players teleporting, sliding, behaving strangely, not dieing when being shot, those kind of things.
