Ping Question

[Noel Basco]

Hey guys, i want to know if the low ping is caused by bad router or isp, and is it because many people are connected to the same router?

low ping is good , if it were high it would be a problem.

oh oops, i meant high ping* my bad.

are you connected via wifi? If by wifi, there is several reasons, IE: poor quality router, bad wifi signal, wifi interference, distance from the router etc... 

[emosun]

anywhere between your machine and another players machine can cause high ping

your network , your isp , the games server , the other players isp , other players network , ect.....

Mostly it's distance, number of nodes involved and technology and protocols of your ISP.

 

If your home equipment is running right.. your network is not saturated or suffering from buffer bloat and your not on wifi.. this is probably and issue with your ISP. Fiber lines tend to have very low latency so look for FTTP/FiOS packages in your area.
