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.

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.
