Sudden high pings on Europian servers

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I'm Archis and I stay in Mumbai(formarly known as Bombay), India. Purpose of posting here is my all pings for the servers from Europe which were between 130 - 160 ms have gone high above 250 ms from Tuesday, 20 November 2012. Some of these europian server are in my favorites as I use to play on those frequently along with my other friend who also stays in my city. Funny part is he is getting same old good pings on the server but not me. I have spoken with my ISP and I guess there is an issue from there side. Can you please guide me more about this issue. I can not join any of my fav. servers due to high ping now. I also formatted my PC and reinstall Windows 7 64 bit again but still no change in the pings.

Regards

This is probably due to your ISP changing transit providers or their own BGP routes. In laymen terms it means that the ISP buy internet access from one or more top tier providers. Some times they change providers, other times they route traffic to one area through one provider and traffic to another area through another. Sometimes they simply f.... up and the traffic takes an unnecessary long path to the goal. This means that your traffic has to travel further than earlier to get to the European servers. What you can do is to run CMD and then write "treacert <ip of the server>" and compare with your friend's traceroute. If the jump in delay is early in the list, it's within the ISP itself and they can probably solve it.
