Well I feel like any more than 90 ping is not good, streamers playing fortnite have issues when they lag/jump to 70 ping from about 15 - 20 ms...

Fact, your on a crappy connection. If anyone else does anything while your playing, your going to have issues. 

 

Ping is affected by many things. 1) over loading your internet connection can cause high ping. 2) distance between you and the server your trying to connect to. If the server is half way around the world, your going to have problems 3) Issues at peering points. These are the connections your ISP uses to get to other places on the internet. For example Comcast connecting to Netflix's network. 

 

First thing Id do is get a better internet connection. Secondly Id limit BT usage for when your not paying games.

it is hard to explain but i'll try it anyway.

 

the difference is Mbps and MB is a 10x difference

meaning if you have a 10MB line you'll have 1Mbps internet.

 

so if you know what you need in Mbps 10x

and if you tell an ISP your needed speed in MB it's /10

 

Correct me if i'm wrong but in the Netherlands we have a very different set of choices

MBps is 8x FASTER than Mbps. 

ISPs measure speed in Mbps

Given the struggle for MB vs Mb, I typically suggest to just write mbyte/s or mbit/s.
