Servers?

[Hinata]

What's wrong with servers these days? New host?

My ping is too high when I play on servers... 200ping, and players are teleporting sometimes... I normally have 100-110 average ping...

I could say, It comes from my connection? But I have a normal ping in every others servers. Including USA servers. It only happens on ipug servers...

Any idea? I'm mad.

I'm banned cause I've got issues with the servers? Instead of helping me, I got banned... wtf, anyway as usual.

Here is a pic of my ping on different servers... hope it can help to find the issue...

use the tracert command to figure out at what hop your latency begins. type "cmd" into the start menu search box, then type "tracert 63.251.34.55" (or whatever the server's ip is) into the command prompt.

the first column is the number of hops (connections) between you and the server. the next 3 columns are response times in ms. the row with the highest response times are the source of your problems. post a screenshot if you don't understand.

you can use a proxy to try and get better routing, or try using different dns servers (opendns and google dns servers are free). could try calling your isp and tell them which ip in your route is shitty.

most likely solution is to just wait.

Thanks for reply.

See, my ping is normal now, and in few minutes, I'll probably get again those weird highping.



I've done the tracert. I post it because I dont really see what it does.
I'll try it also when my ping is high.

119 is dos does not = 200 in game. The problem would be on the clients end

you need to do the tracert when your ping is currently high to the server. again, not much that you can really do if the lag is only intermittent.

A dns or a vpn can do the trick. back when i was in france i had issues with my ping on a livebox, ping getting over 150 on uk servers only (when it's supposed to be around 20-30)

[Finalz]

can you launch UT up from that program?

@Finalz : Yes.

@Faithless : HLSW :>

have you tried changing to ?

Afaik DNS servers only resolve domain names/ips and that response time is what makes a DNS server slower/faster for general internet stuff. Has nothing to do with routing though, and it won't change your ping, just how long it takes to resolve IP to whatever.com and vice versa. It will help if you can't access a certain server at all and you know it's up and that sort of thing.

brainfart. chicken is of course right.
