virgin in game ping a bit high..

snow patrol · 5 Nov 2010 at 22:15

hi all, i've had 50 meg virgin for a few months now and it's great. However, i have noticed that my actual in game ping in cod 4 isn't as good as others. It's usually around the 60-85 mark, even though in the server browser it's much less. Any ideas? Is it the dlink router? To be honest, i've been really happy with the router with everything else...

Where is the server? its ok having a ping latency indicator but if you don't know what exactly its connecting to its not much use, it could be in China.

It's the opposite with BFBC2 - ICMP ping can be 10ms but 100Ms in game.

Consider yourself lucky. I'm with VM 20Mb and I'm getting no less than 1000ms ping. Usually 10000ms in game, with 85%+ packet loss.

I'll be switching back to BE soon.
