what whould be cool althoug h i understand the lagistics of it are allmost unbeliveable whould be if the connections could be trafic shaped by ntl to priritse real time traffic game's voip, video confrencing. alas that isent going to happen (in the forseable future).
any way your ingame ping will be measured differently from your server browser ping in the server browser it is normally like issuing a ping from the comand line wheras in game your ping is usually some composite figure calcualted by the server and is mroe dependant on bandwidth if there is saturation somewhere betwen your comptuer and the server your ping will skyrocket.
if this seams unlikely open run and
type cmd
in the window that opens type tracert "server ip goes here"
this will show you the ping to each router ect betwen your computer and the server
