AsNCo Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Hey. I was gaming with locals when I realised how perfect my connection was to one of the players. The moment I ping, it shows 3ms ping.I have my ways to see IP addresses even though the Netduma R1 doesn't. So I ping it to only find out that I was pinging to Data Centre by Equinix.Could someone have a look at this and clarify whether it is a player using a Data Centre or an actual Game Server?I won't show the IP address so I'll just show the ID which I'm sure Iain can understand.ID: 29677a4504c8f7fcTrace route shows 1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms My Router [192.168.1.1] 2 1 ms 1 ms 1 ms MyISP 3 1 ms 1 ms 1 ms MyISP 4 1 ms 1 ms 1 ms Equinix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Staff Netduma Crossy Posted July 17, 2015 Netduma Staff Share Posted July 17, 2015 Perhaps it could be a VPN that a player is using? Just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsNCo Posted July 17, 2015 Author Share Posted July 17, 2015 Perhaps it could be a VPN that a player is using? Just a thought Equinix doesn't provide any VPN services but is wholly a Data Centre to Amazon Cloud Service, Google Cloud Service and more. Research shows Equinix to be helping Microsoft with hosting the Azure servers. I know on Xbox, yes, the Azure server is shown in my country. But for PS3, it won't show the Azure servers for obvious reasons thus there are no Dedicated Servers in my country for PSN as far as I know. So it could be Activision having a Dedicated Server here by using Equinix too. But I rarely get in it. So I need a form of confirmation of whether I am playing against a player which uses that Data Centre or is it fully a Dedicated Server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AsNCo Posted July 17, 2015 Author Share Posted July 17, 2015 Converting that ID to an IP I'm getting Over The Top TV, does that make sense? Hi. Can I PM you or Iain the IP address so you guys can check whether it's a possible server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted July 17, 2015 Administrators Share Posted July 17, 2015 Yeah sure, I converted that ID to an IP so would be good to see if we have the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
