Alright guys. Many Indians have high ping so I'd thought I'd make this post. This really helped me lower my ping from about 250-300 to 100-150(Seriously!)

Step 1
Open a command prompt with admin rights. To do so, go to the following location:
Either type, or copy and paste, the following into the command prompt, and then press 'Enter' on your keyboard:
Warning: I highly recommend that you create a System Restore point before proceeding with the next three steps.
Step 2
Click the 'Start' button, type regedit in the search field, and press 'Enter' on your keyboard. If you don't know how to edit the registry, then you may want to take a look at this article.
Navigate to the following registry key:

You will need to know what IP address your computer has on your local network (not on the Internet), and then find the subkey under 'Interfaces' that has the correct IP address. If you don't know how to find out the IP address on your local network, then check out this tutorial. In most cases only one of the subkeys will have all of the information, so it should be easy to find even if you get confused. Look at the following screenshot to see what all of the information looks like:

Once you find it, you need to add two registry values to it. They are both 32-bit DWORD values. They are as follows:
TcpAckFrequency

Step 3
Click on 'Start', click on "Control Panel", click on 'Programs' in the lower-left, and then click on "Turn Windows features on or off" under the "Programs and Features" section. You will want to expand "Microsoft Messaging Queue (MSMQ) Server" by clicking the little plus to it's left, and then expand "Microsoft Messaging Queue (MSMQ) Server Core" as well. After doing that, click all of the checkboxes under the "Microsoft Messaging Queue (MSMQ) Server" section, just like in the screenshot below:

If you closed regedit earlier, you will need to open it back up for this step.
Navigate to the following key in regedit:

If you completed those steps properly, then you should be able to play CS 1.6 or whatever other online games you enjoy, with much less lag.
Note that I don't actually understand why installing and configuring Microsoft Messaging Queue helps reduce the latency. I just know that it helped on my computer, and has helped on other peoples' computers.
Thank Me If This Lowered Your Ping!
