Latency(ping) on PTCL to ip 51.91.106.148
Sometimes its 161ms
sometimes its 179ms
sometimes its 185ms
sometimes its 198ms
and at night its above 210ms
How can one play games with this much changes in ping through out day...
Are we given the lowest priority on undersea cable and we get put on the worst route whenever possible ..
just for info (these tests are done using just 1 device [my pc] connected to modem]

And whenever route changes (latency change) i get disconnected from game and cant connect for 1-5 minutes ..

don't know i use app and wireguard protocal
Hmmm well i have tried few free open vpn connections but they give almost zero mbps speed to me. PPTP does not work at all. i somehow feel like ports are blocked for vpn. I can ping the server but when i connect to vpn using open vpn, i cannot ping 8.8.8.8 and if somehow i get a response its like 1000ms +

anybody else getting message from ptcl informing us that they raised prices for package again and this time without an increase in the speeds! BOOOOOOO!
i got msg from 90176 that they raised price of my 30mb from 2700 to 2835 and there is nothing i can do about it. last time they raised this much but they also increased the package speed from 20 to 30. still its ok but getting the feeling they will surely increase this again after a couple of months

I launched a complaint for "High Pings" and in few hours my pings went from
Max 210ms Min178ms
to 158ms 24/7 so far (Got email from PTCL your issue has been resolved)
And after activating fast path they went down to 148ms
But the thing is once i was getting 138ms (same game server in Europe)

PTCL still has a lot to improve! But i am happy that they have started fixing high ping issues
I do Still Wish that i can get 138ms all the time it feels so good to game at 138ms instead of 148ms
That green color on ping looks pretty ^.^

Can you do a trace to 8.8.8.8 and share it here, please?

Anyone else getting high latency on PTCL on Singapore servers for many weeks now? VPN also not helping. I think they changed the routing once again unfortunately.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    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.

    MS one upping Sony in catching the biggest L in gaming
    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
