high ping / routing issue
hi hi, my ping used to be 57-61 in the cali server but now, it is 100-105. i contacted support and followed all of their steps but it hasn't improved. my ping switches back and forth to its old ping. in one match, it'll be 57-61 and in the next, it'll be 100-105. i also noticed that my ping in the texas server is lower than it used to be (before: 84-87, now: 64-67). however, my ping also switches back and forth in that server. any and all help is appreciated!

have you tried contacting your isp
yep!
what response did you get
they j seemed to not understand the prob ;-;
oh maybe u talked to a low level worker or idk atleast that's how it works here did they escalate you to someone or just told u to deal with it
they didn't give me any solution
@Kenji-San
whos is your provider ?
also traceroute here

@schiz0kitten ^

my provider is centurylink!
are you playing on wifi or ethernet, get your network graphs enabled to see if the latency spikes during your matches please
I SIT, IN MY DESOLATE ROOM. NO LIGHTS? NO MUSIC?!?!? JUST ANGER 😡🔥 I’VE KILLED EVERYONE 💀. I’M AWAY FOREVER 🌌. BUT I’M FEELING BETTER ☠️
i’m playing on ethernet and will do, i’ll update asap


do these work?
those look pretty ok, did your latency jumped while playing the game ?
my latency didn't jump while playing. however, in the lobby, my ping was 66-67 but in the match, my ping was 83-85. every match has a different ping ;-;
i don't rlly mind playing in the texas server but the ping inconsistency gives me headaches!
and which state are you playing from ?
hey im having ping issues too can i msg u?
no! make a new thread please and describe your problem my friend
ok
i’m playing from arizona! my better ping rn is in texas since cali is still 100-105

@schiz0kitten

ty for getting back to me! my ping to the cali server is slightly higher than it used to be but way lower than the 100-105 it was at. my ping to the texas server is back to 84-87 like it used to be .w.
They are now preferring LAX connection with us instead of Dallas which. Pheonix < - > LAX is closer in my head, that is why your Dallas is up a bit. I still think this should be lower to be honest but we will have to take it for now until they upgrade the infrastructure. Average dropped to about 35ms for Arizona players though

@schiz0kitten ^ are you on fibre or dsl ?
i see! it looks a lot better :3
i’m on dsl ;-;
that explains the 44ms towards their hub, no fibre in the area ?
no fiber ;-;
welp!
anyways best of luck ill close it down as donesky
ofc and ty again for ur help, kenji-san! it’s much appreciated :3
i will take all the credit for this if the problem got fixed, if it didnt then im blaming it on someone else
so either thank me or blame someone else :val_HeyApple:
Thanks to this vid, their network decided to behave.
thats what im saying
