Packet rate ? GG's work on T2 Final Update

Yes, I know this is not a favourite topic for GG... but I need some help.

After the excellent contract work GG performed on the Tribes 2 Final Update, the following became the default:

$pref::Net::PacketRateToClient = 20;
$pref::Net::PacketSize = 350;
$pref::Net::PacketRateToServer = 24;

the old default settings were 16, 240, and 20.

I have a couple of questions... first of all, were these new settings intentional ? and second, do they apply to both the client and the server, or just one or the other ?

any help is really appreciated... if these settings are in Torque as well, perhaps someone other than GG staff can offer some assistance.

thx in advance :)
