Your ping varies, depending on your connection speed, the quality of your connection, how much of your connection you are using (instant messengers, downloads, automatic updates, etc).

Try to disable anything that uses the internet while you're playing Soldat.

if you have good internet, and everything seems to be ok, maybe you have a bad line(depending on type of internet of course)
Your acting like your having a duel and your opponent gets a pistol and you get a spork.
Isn't that pretty much what it is? I dunno wtf a spork is, I suppose it's way weaker than the pistol since you compared that to this.

Dial-up.  Ew?

I also have dial-up, but lag spikes pop up rarely.  Like lapis said, I think you should turn off/disable anything that eats up your internet connection, like automatic updates for various software/programs (Windows and anti-virus, for instance), to get a smoother online play.
