After reading through many of the posts and noting some having issues while others do not, I propose we make a post of our pertinent hardware/software as well as any relative drivers to disclose any trends, good or bad.

Personally. I LOVE the support here and the game is more than interesting, so lets all make a contribution of support by catalogueing our data in a format that can benefit users as well as tech support.

SYSTEM:

WinXP Pro
AMD-XP2500
1gb Kingston HyperX DDR RAM
GeForce FX5600 Ultra 128 MB
Forceware 65.73 Drivers
OpenGL Selected

CONNECTION:

D-Link Di-604 router
Adelphia - Cable

CONDITIONS:

Gameplay = no lag
Disconnects = frequent/irregular
Common Errors = (1848 - Decoder...)

I believe my hardware configuration is running the game as well as anyone right now. The server lags and warps me around some, but it seems that afflicts everyone.

My system specs are as follows:

Dell Dimension 8300 desktop computer
Pentium 4, 3 GHz
1 GB RAM
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro with 128 MB VRAM with Catalyst v4.8 drivers
Creative Labs SB Live! sound card
Networked to a D-Link DI-614+ router via physical cable (not wireless)
Router connected to internet via DSL modem
Windows XP OS with SR1 (NOT upgraded to SR2 yet)

I should note that Dimension 8300s are probably not the best choice any more. The new Dimension 8400s support PCX cards, potentially a very important upgrade path for all future graphics cards.
