High Ping Issue

[Cheese8]

Hello,
I play a lot on the darkly sever and I have an issue with high ping from time to time. My ping would go up as much as 200 ms and then stay that way for many rounds and then after it goes down again for a while it just shoots right back up. I included a few screenshots of my traceroute which shows the high ping spike. Please help me resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance

Does this happen on other servers, besides Darkly? Because the case might not have to do with the hosting, it might be your internet. We need a bit more information to help, meng.

Comcast.
I am so sorry.

The thing is that every other server is fine. The only time my ping is high is when I'm routed through nLayer servers. If I'm routed through another server its fine. You can even see in the screens that right after it comes to nLayer it just shoots up.

Your ping shoots up to 200?
Mine Averages At 300... Beautiful... aint it?

Uh, why is your traceroute run from a mobile phone??

Please post from your computer and I can attempt to help.

Time to bail to Chicago.

I love my 5-15 ping in the Toronto server, but having to deal with the choking and player warping isn't worth it. I can deal with 15-25 ping. I'm all for Chicago.

FYI, Cheese, my ping used to spike up to 200 when I was with Bell, too.

Well it really doesn't make a difference since the traceroute is still done from the same IP and same router that my computer goes through and they look exactly the same, but I can post the ones from my PC later on when I get off work.

I'm not with Bell, I'm with Comcast since I'm playing from the US. However that doesn't mean I should be getting such a high ping. I mean I used to play on a British server in another game and I got like a 100ms ping still better than I get here most of the time.

Thank you.

Yes, it will make a difference as phone hardware sucks and will lag no matter what. In order to help you, I need accurate results.

If your PC is still showing nlayer as a hop, then there's no hope. It's a notoriously terrible place to get routed and causes severe slowdowns, similar to mountain cable for people being routed through Hamilton, Ontario.
