hey my friend is hosting a server and it continues to go through lag spikes that affects everyone in the server.

i think the server is hosted on the west coast of America, but i am not sure. i think he set the minimum ping thing to 250 as the max.

can someone help?

Try buying a server closer to you and your players.

A dedicated server (as Paradox said) is a good idea, but in this case I think we should also mention, that hosting a Trem-Server on the same machine that is used for playing and only connected to the net via cable/dsl/dial-ip is generally considered a stupid idea.

'100mb connection'

this answers your question, (please please know what you're talking about before you say something.)

What kind of connection would be considered a good idea?

A real connection, such as one you get in a datacenter or colo facility.
(10Mbps duplex, un-fiddled with)
