Hi, as I am sure some of you guys know, I play on your PoE:2 server quite often (Probably one of the best servers around BTW!). But recently, since Fri 10th Nov, I have been experiencing some quite awfull pings on your server.
I'm based in the UK and usually idle at around 100ms to 120ms, which is fine for me considering the gamplay I am getting in return.
However, since Friday I have been anywhere between 600ms and 800ms, sometimes more!, which is obviously way too high to play with. The strange thing is that other servers seem to be still pinging ok!
I have done tracert and ping command in MS DOS and have the results for you below, I will be taking this up with my ISP to see if they can give me any answers for the sudden change in ping times, but I thought I'd post it here aswell, just incase any of the server admins/tech guys are able to identify a problem at your end and/or give me some feedback.
Thanks in advance and here's hoping I'll be back on the
TG server soon!
Oh BTW, where exactly is the Server located? Just incase my ISP ask
Ping and tracert results....
