Thread: Pings to abroad servers suddenly increase :S

Hey guys, I was getting pings of about 160 to abroad servers and suddenly one day it increase to 200-220. Why is this? Please help! I am using MT 882 modem and need low pings so that I don't get kicked from server while gaming
Is it only me or is it for all?

Not much anyone can do.

Try switching from pppoe to bridge mode or vice versa and check whether it helps.

But any idea why this problem has come up? Switching to bridge mode doesn't help btw but still thanks for the suggestion

It could be DNS problem as well. Use OpenDNS settings and check.

Please give me open DNS settings. Thanks.

Please take a look at the Broadband How to section. You will find articles there.

Look at the How to set TCP/IP settings guide also.

I tried open DNS. Doesn't help. My pings are still about 40-50 higher than normal. Any idea why this problem may be occurring? hmm

Bump ne1? The reason why my pings would have increased? hmm!!!

hi

m also xperiencing da same problem!....

i usually play on chinese servers....i used to get ~270 ping on chinese servers during offload times n ~400 during peak hours...which has increased to 800-900!!

i have registered a thousand complaints...but to no use.....

they put some bihari leyman on the phone who doesnt even know wat ping is...

the reply i got when i asked that my ping was high was "ACHA HAI NA APKA ZYADA HAI AUR APKE DOSTON KA KUM".....

and they say india is develepoing!..

the increased ping may have arised from a sudden increase in server load, lately all the eastern servers seem slower to me than their western counterparts. are their any other problems like slower download/browsing speed ?
their is nothing u can do about that ping issue. changing ur port at bsnl may do the job (not sure).
