High Ping Help!!!!

I followed the steps from Mussels, and this is how my Speedtest.net turned out.



The ping looks alright but I'm still getting connection problems in game, and also the upload speed still isn't great.

I'm about to read the other posts you guys written because it seemd really helpful when I skimmed through.


Thanks.

 

Ping help!

So problem is fixed. I hate coincidence, but it turned out to be my ISP who was having problems at the same time I was switching up systems. After my last post here, I switched back to my other system and had the same problem. Ran a traceroute to www.google.com and other places, and after step 3 the pings went bad. I managed to contact their level 3 support and it was fixed this morning. Pings are all good. Thanks guys for putting up with this headache with me. *Toast :toast:

 

High Ping Help!!!!

You can try pinging your router to see if ping is excessively high between your computer and it. If it is you may have a faulty Ethernet cable or interference on your wireless network.

Type the following in the command prompt.
Code: ping 192.168.1.1[/quote] You can also substitute IP addresses for various website URLs to see if you get varying pings from different websites.

Code: ping www.google.com[/quote] The "tracert" command is also very useful for discovering where the latency is occurring between you and a designated location.

for example:

Code: tracert www.speedtest.net[/quote] this will give you a list of the amount of time it takes for your data to travel between each device it encounters on its way to www.speedtest.net. This is called a "hop".

If you have a long hop between your modem and the servers at your ISP (look for a hop with your ISP's name somewhere in its name) followed by short hops when the data leaves your ISP's infastructure then you know the trouble is with your ISP and not with your equipment. If you have consistently high ping throughout all hops you could have a malware problem

Knowing where the excess lag is occurring is the first step to figuring out how to fix it.
