Broadband (DSL or Cable) will clear up any high ping problem. It is more expensive than dial-up, but it's very much worth it (not just for JK2). Changing your video card and turning all that stuff off will only give you a better frame rate, I don't think it will do much to lower your ping.

Go to the servers section, it tells where each one is located.

You could try turning down your game settings, tweaking your connection, or getting broadband.

Why should our government send our soldiers to foreign soil to protect freedom of speech, when our freedom of speech is being taking away everyday by the same government.

One way (besides getting broadband,:D) is to connect to a server that is physically closer to your part of the country. On DJ Siths' Texas based server i usually get around 100 to 300 ping. On the [ks] in Kansas i get 300 to 999!
