    here's what i used when on 56K.

    // net
    seta cl_maxpackets "30"
    seta cl_timenudge "0"
    seta rate "3800"
    seta snaps "20"

    just add those to your config.

    if you dont know anything about config files, and dont have one, you can d/l mine (which was basicly cogged from koopa somewhere along the line) from here. if your're new to messing with configs, this is going to make q3 look ugly... but thats a good thing ;)

    let us know if you have any trouble.

    Thnxs i tried the rates and stuff and got a 200 ping which isn't great so i think isdn is the solution.

    200 ping is fairly standard in q3 for modem. It always depends on ISP and time, if you connect at 4am to a good ISP on an Irish server you'll probably get 130 ping assuming the server isn't busy and full of broadbanders.
