Anyone from PTCL having decent pings to Europe recently? From what I've heard PTCL is actively engaged in route optimization and peering initiatives to achieve lower latency and an improved user experience for gaming on European and Asian servers.

Using StormFiber and being on PIE upstream, I can confirm this. Have been getting the lowest possible pings to EUW for the first time.

Frankfurt (AWS) = 130 ms
Singapore (AWS) = 100 ms
London (AWS) = 140 ms
Ireland (AWS) = 150 ms

All are on 39.40 pool.

Would be great if they could optimize Discord Voice chat servers as well. The Singapore server on Discord comes up at 200 ms, and the EU ones aren't much better.

He's pretty damn lucky to be honest. Those pings are awesome in Pakistan. I bet he gets around 60 ping in Fortnite (SEA server).
His post says 78 ms Singapore AWS so not exactly 60, but anything below 100 is good enough for me lol.

The ping on Cloudping is always higher than in-game. My friend in Karachi gets 52 in Creative :D
52 ms to Singapore? :O

I don't think that is practically achievable man. Can you ask him to share traceroute? Being on FTTH and having optimal pings optimized, my ping to sgp hovers over 78 to 85 ms even with 8 hops only. But I never get below 78. The lowest I've seen is 75 ms people using transworld, that's about it.

The way Fortnite displays pings is unreliable. They keep screwing things up with updates. They even made a Reddit thread about it. Don't believe the pings shown in game always. Pinging the server over a wired connection, or even pinging directly from your router (if it has that feature), should give you reliable results.

I was playing on EU the other day, and it showed 100-110 ms, which is obviously impossible. I've never gotten below 120 on European servers.

Exchange walas said isi week start ho jaega. Guess configuration will take another week.
Any progress today with your connection though?

AUTH or LINK lights turned on?

My connection is down again, and last time it went down, was coincidentally the same day that connections were being installed in Wah.

Connections could be from the same MSAG which would explain why mine is down again. I sincerely hope it doesn't take them 12 hours to restore it this time.

Nope - only Power and WLAN. I'm guessing they'll take another week or two. Super slow.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
