Random lag spikes (Spawns maybe?)

[Ankhalas]

I've experienced some random lag issues in M&B cRPG, specially when playing in Siege servers. I normally have a good ping (around 50), but sometimes my game lags for a second or two. This usually happens to me when I get close to combat and it's quite annoying when two big groups are killing each other. I have no problems at all in Battle servers like EU_crpg1 with 90-100+ people playing. I think this can be related with respawns, because I always lag for a few seconds when I start a round and other players are spawning and having in mind that in Siege servers that happens a lot when you are in combat...

I live in Spain, I own a 20Mb internet connection and my OS is Windows XP x64 (yeah, it sucks, but can't install W7 or Vista and don't know why).

Anyone have a solution for this problem?  I would like to solve this because I really enjoy playing in Siege servers but at moment it's quite unstable.

Thanks a lot, and sorry for my english!

I hope this is the correct place to post this topic

Same problem but in duel and battle servers as well. It's not my connection although I can't tell you the specifics about it (my schools)
I'm on W7 in Denmark though

I had this problem and found that in my Steam settings, my internet connection type was set to 256k instead of Cable. Give that a check and if you change it to what it should be, it fixes it.
