I was reading that off the router itself. However, it looks like it was a problem with my line.... Noticed I was syncing at 7mbps instead of the usual 10mbps. Not sure why, but a reboot of my modem seems to have fixed it. Will keep an eye on it for now, sorry for the false alarm!

Congrats on the new network, I hope it all goes without a hitch!

Ah! That's good to hear! Glad to hear that you are running at full speed again!

Can you please let me know if there is any change.

Can you please restart your modem and then test the connection again.

Definitely looking much better now.

Still getting some fluctuation with those international downloads (Afriman is checking into it) but can see an improvement.

Awesome! :)

Please keep me updated and let me know if there is any change.
 
So what's happening? Why is Armored Warfare broken again? High ping around 300-500. Even having problems logging in. Fine on WebAfrica.

Things are looking okay on this side, would you be able to run a traceroute to the Armoured Warfare server?

All working fine now. I tried for 15 mins straight. Restarting the router and swapping between WebAfrica Free 1GB, Afrihost Free 1GB and the Uncapped account. Both Afrihost accounts were borked.
What happened?

Getting 196ms and no packet loss. All A-OK.
 
OK - I am somewhat confused at the moment.

My in-game experience is absolutely terrible - running from 2500 ms and upwards. When I run pingplotter, there is some packet loss on hop 3 and on certain European hops.

I have only the following things running: (1) Pingplotter, Forsaken World (the game) and ping/traceroute tests.

Pingplotter results tie in with what I am experiencing in-game.

traceroute and ping tests shows a perfect connection!

Why the difference?

Any inputs as to what is causing these issues?

Just to add, in case it was a problem with PWI's Forsaken World - tried Diablo III (EU server) and ping runs between ~200 and ~500). Really weird :(
