Question about my ping to the router itself.


Recommended Posts

When running trace routes, I don't know what is considered good and what is considered bad. I consistently see one or two RTT's on the very first hop(the r1) above 10 ms. This seems high to me but I really don't know, thought I'd post here for an answer.

Disregard trace routes because they are not that accurate . Use ping option. It is your best bet. I believe the administrators will be removing the trace route option. Maybe they can speak on this.

1 r1.lan (192.168.88.1) 6.495ms 24.540ms 28.151ms

 

I also have concern with hop 6 but that is my ISP, sometimes it runs high sometimes it runs normal, the traceroute I just did (same as above) reads this:

 

6 ae5---0.cor01.chcg.il.frontier.net (74.40.2.205) 20.99ms 130.015 ms 139.984 ms

 

After that all the other hops drop down to sub 30ms

Had to leave the house, I'll test a hard wired connection when I get back.

 

Ok - I think the wireless is the issue for that :) If I ping my router from my laptop (which is on wireless) then the ping fluctuates between 3-8ms, so not much less than yours :)

On the hard wired they are all under .5ms. Sorry, didn't know wifi affected it that much.

 

Yes wireless can add a little bit on which is one of the reasons it is recommended to play on a hard wired connection :) If you do then don't worry about the ping from your laptop to the Duma.

On ping diagnostics I can only ever get a ping rating of "good". Anyway to improve this?

 

Not really. Good is still good though, lol. You shouldn't find that your games are made any worse because of it really.
