the best is always the lowest...

Its the time a packet takes to travel from your node to the remote node and back. This time is being measured in ms (milliseconds).

A ping of 50 would equal 25ms of travel time from you to the server.

Lower is better essentially.

Oh and since using search engines is not everyones cup of tea:

Also http://en.wikipedia...._(video_gaming) and http://en.wikipedia....itched_networks and 1000milliseconds == 1second.

Anything below 100 ping is usually pretty good.

You can press P while in game to see your ping on the right side of the screen.

Yeah I have mine set to the point it turns from green to yellow on DayZ Commander which is 150, though I still try and join the lowest with the most on :D

Choose the lowest possible.
