Hi there.
I have read these forums forever when i had trouble and it always helped me alot but lately I have had a problem with my ping. I will play wc3 ( dota ) and run ONLY ts3 or mumble and my ping will be 200 or 300 + This is the only computer in the house and my wireless has a password and i keep a look out on attached devices to my router.. I don't have a lot of applications and programs on my computer. The only things i have that needs internet to function is steam and google talk and i close these as i start to play games. While gaming i use the : ping chat.wage.co.za/t way of finding my ping.

this is while in idle with NO programs running :

During the day my latency is perfect 20-30 but after 6 in the evening it would jump so high there is no way i could play any games. i have a standard telkom netgear modem, 384kb line and 5gb cap. Can someone please help me? i will be truly appreciative.
 
looks like over congested exchange, seems to be allot of reports of those these.

just means there is allot of people on your area using the internet at 6pm, so your connection suffer.
 
The real problem is are that you is play dota.

But to are solve your problem, try maybe perhaps sprinkle eno on lone. Very good for congestion.
 
apart from moving house to an area where there's like ten ppl with adsl, there's not much you can do besides bomb the exchange and have no internet for a while
