You paid $450 for a network adapter?

Loss is network (and to some extent server) related, nothing to do with anything else. When you say loss of 4-7, do you mean total percentage of data? Can you explain your numbers better. Also, post the following from your \NS\config.cfg file:

cl_rate
cl_cmdrate
cl_updaterate
pushlatency

this is my CSTRIKEs im getting the loss in cstrike.. same thing tho..
rate "8000.000000"
cl_updaterate "20"
cl_cmdrate "30"
no pushlatency in config
maybe u forgot cl_pushlatency or something..

and i meant 450$ for my grpx card. im running a deluxe dsl 2wire router, normal network from motherboard.

Your graphics card will have no effect on packet loss (if that's what you're referring to) at all. So don't blame the poor lil Ti4600 <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
