Sudden ping issues
I host a small Minecraft server, gets a maximum of ~10 players online at once.
Starting today, some players started getting really weird ping spikes/issues. Most seem to be people further away from the server, but there was 1 person that lived relatively closed. Ping goes up to anywhere from 300 to the thousands.
The server should have 10Gbit connection & the Spark profiler report looks alright to me (though I'm not that experienced with it)
Is this just a routing issue, or is something else going on?
Here is some more information:
It's weird that it started happening only today (server has been running for 2 weeks now), but if the server location is the issue I am down to move it too.
Out of the total unique players I'd guess roughly 75% USA, 10% Canada & 15% Europe (Majority UK. Also Netherlands & Norway), so if you have a better location suggestion I'll be glad to know
