I'm getting a strangely high ping when using speedtest.net:



When I run ping in Command Prompt or use pingtest.net, my results are pretty good:



For some reason the Pretoria & Johannesburg pingtest.net servers does not work for me.
 
Hi Pada,
I did the same test and got higher values for pingtest than I did with speedtest.
At the command prompt though I got an average of 1ms compared to 33 with speedtest and 62 with pingtest.
I also got failure with Pretoria and Johannesburg pingtest servers.

Regards

Tim
