Ping has increased by a lot on only one server out of the 2 I play in...

I play on Bahrain and Dubai bc those are the only ones with ping below 150. Recently my ping on Bahrain shot up to 150-200 and Dubai is still the same. It wouldn't have been much of an issue if Dubai actually had players. Anyways...any help would be appreciated.

I think that's the reason that ping on bahrain has gone up...... everyone's playing on bahrain no one's playing on dubai

But my friends still have the same ping as before that's what's weird and if it was a wifi problem, my ping on dubai would also have shot up

Open command prompt as administrator and type these commands in order. netsh int ip reset ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew ipconfig /flushdns netsh winsock reset Then heading to your computers power options and clicking "restart".

open command prompt again, type in the following, observe for 2 minutes and check for spikes in latency. you want to look for spikes in the "time" value. ping google . com -l 1164 -t do take out the pace between the dots and the text, server doesn't allow me to send URLs

try disconnecting from your wifi (as in like, make it forget the pw and then reconnect), and try the commands above again

alr btw I got a new router today...that didn't make a difference though why does valo update after I restart my laptop? weird tried this out..it's still the same I actually have no idea what happened this time @Overdrive sorry for the ping but from what I've seen...you know your IT stuff. So do you think port forwarding can fix my problem? and if yes then how do I setup a range for the internal and external ports when my router settings don't give an option for ranges

port forwarding? english aint my first language, gme a minute to just go over all this yeah you can try port forwarding but how to set it up varies a lot on what router you have you can hit a google to check out how to enable it on yours most new routers will have this option

Update: I kinda found a workaround. Try using Cloudlfare’s Warp+ tunneling. Seems to bring back my normal ping, or rather I’d say, fix the routing
