Assalamalikum, PTCL has been pretty stable for me since I switched to VDSL. But it is still pathetic in the gaming department with streaming issues on certain sites eg: Twitch.tv and slow downloads during peak hours. My question is that if I get a static IP and provide it to you with all game server IPs and traceroutes, will you be able to get it fixed for me? Because I have been suffering from this issue for the past 2 years, ever since I moved here. Rainbow 6 siege is my main fps and i mainly play on Asian servers. I am currently investing in a VPN to keep my ping low.

I am asking because my ISP in KSA provided me a static IP for free so that they can optimize routes for that specific IP pool and I don't have to face high ping issues anymore and within like 2 weeks I had an optimal routing to majority of USA, EU and Asian servers. Would really appreciate it if you look into this matter. Also get this Twitch buffering issue sorted out. Thank you.
no need for static IP at the moment but tell me your current IP assigned and trace route to rainbow 6 server of singapore ?

Can I quickly interject and say that the routing to some CDNs have improved (i.e. their ping times have improved)? Whether you had anything to do with this directly or not, thank you [MENTION=32544]usmanghazanfar[/MENTION].

Well my IP pool is 39.45 no matter how many times I restart the modem I get the same IP pool. Some IPs in this pool give me good ping to half of Rainbow 6 servers while others don't give good ping at all. Right now I am getting 100ms to some servers while other servers are around 200+ ms and all these servers are located in Singapore. Here are traceroutes of IPs with high ping:

I'm not OP, but i just did a trace to these IPs for my own sake (I don't know which games these are though). And I'm not getting any optimal route on any IP. My IP is 39.33.199.xxx

1. Well the issue for IP 52.163.71.215 seems to be fixed however 137.116.130.123 still needs to be optimized. What are you going to do with my current IP when it is not even static? It will eventually change and routing will go back to complete crap. I will pm you my exact IP if that matters.

2. All three IPs belong to Rainbow 6 siege Asian servers in Singapore.

Can you help me change my connection routing to 119. IP pool? I'm tired of getting 400 ping on every region? I'm on DSL btw. Here is the pings results: https://prnt.sc/ls3tuf

Before you go and say something like "are you downloading something in background". No I'm not and I'm on a 10 MBPS connection which is only connected to my PC. The PTCL pings are fucked up and none is doing anything about it. I'm really unlucky to have PTCL services. I have been using PTCL for past 6 years and pings were a lot better before but now they are fucked up everywhere. I got 119.*.*.* pool and my pings were great just now. After I restarted the router, everything went back to 400. Is there anything you can do to help me [MENTION=32544]usmanghazanfar[/MENTION]

Please share trace route to Singapore server and your current exact IP

whatever IP u had, u could have shred the information i asked
I appreciate the efforts man. The ping was fixed for some time. I restarted the device and now the pings are fucked up again. Is there any permanent solution to this? Would be awesome if you could do something that helps me keep the good routing.

I appreciate the efforts man. The ping was fixed for some time. I restarted the device and now the pings are fucked up again. Is there any permanent solution to this? Would be awesome if you could do something that helps me keep the good routing.
Static IP is the solution but I don't understand why they can't accept my request for assigning a static IP and optimizing routes for that IP. Even my ISP in KSA did it so i don't face high ping in case i restart the fiber ONT.

I know but there is another way where you can get it fixed without having to get Static IP.

I have sent you complete IPs list and my IP address in pm please check and get it fixed. Thank you.
Stop acting like you pay him to do your job "check it and get it fixed". You should be respecting the guy that he's willing to help people over gaming forums.

    Just finished Diablo 4 season in hurry to play Fallout 4 but gamepass released another banger in the form of Star Wars on April 25th. Gamepass is a steal man.

    Is it just me or people lately seem to defend every bad game design decision made by the devs and try to give bullshit reasons for that? Or perhaps it's because I'm on reddit and discord :ROFLMAO:
