High latency

[rpm]

Are you guys also experiencing high latency with international gaming servers? Suddenly close to 1000 ms

 

[HellTel]

I'm in a game right now 5720ms lol

 

[rpm]

Damn...i sit just over 1000 ms

 

[EchoDown]

Must be another storm coming in

High latency on all international right now on SAIX.

And what games are we playing tonight?

me starcraft, but off line

 

[Afflicted]

Yeah, playing WoW on EU - since thursday my pings have gone through the roof, almost never under 1000ms, spikes like mad, rediculous packet loss at times... and not just wow, everything international is slow (well not downloading /browsing, just pings).

Games - what a luxury that would be

Only reading this post on monday morning but last nite was playing EVE and had no problems whatsoever. Using a 10gb saol account.

my local to saix for bf2 ping has gone from 30ms to 75ms... and i cant get it better

Since yesterday my ping to saix CS:S servers has gone from 30ms to 90ms

I was having problems since thursday trying to play guildwars - pings were at approx 500ms, with 10% packet loss and regular 3second dead periods. Suddenly at around 2AM the ping dropped back to the 400MS I'm used to, and the connection is stable again.

I think SAIX has definately been doing something regarding their packet shaping policies.

My latency to the SGS servers has also gone up from 30ms to 80 - 90ms

 

[BrianB]

You guys still haveing latency problems, mine is still at arround 90ms

Ping to saix is fine, its just the game servers that are giveing me trouble

 

[Wolfling]

My ping times are at a steady 410ms (Centurion, 512dsl, telkominternet) to the EVE server since Monday evening. (which is playable for EVE)

However last weekend and over the weekend it was as bad as 600ms.

Got myself the PingPlotter software, it shows you very nicely what is going on.

 

[MobileAllOver]

My pings are as usual. Local < 50ms.
