Well, have you tried the version 1.5 first just to see what kind of ping you get in that?
Steam has been known to screw up with your ping and other things, but if you also lag on 1.5 then its your provider or computer.
What kind of comp do you have? Specs? exp= Ram, Processor, Harddrive, Graphics card)

Go to Monitor in Steam and disable auto-update. Happend to me before I had about 1000~ ping in all servers.
