There are no other programs running, and I tried every setting in ET for video and system, but nothing works

In the early days, it happened a couple of times that I accidently set the connection (options>system) to ISDN. Doesn’t sound like that’s your problem, but that’s all I can think of.

As you have this when you host your own game it’s probably not network related

you should try to reinstall the game, video drivers and motherboard drivers

Mmmm… Have you tried a different game online, to see if it’s just ET…?

Yep, I can play battlefield 2 online, counter-strike source, WoW, half-life 2 deathmatch, unreal tournament 2004, and everything on the highest settings, and it doesn’t lag a bit.

Tried the old video driver that worked fine? Some ATI drivers have OpenGL issues I hear …

I used the same video driver
