ping problems

[enough]

I bought a new mouse…. ping was ok for like an hour after install, but then all of the sudden its terrible… i cant even get in game anymore because its so high, anybody know why it just all of the sudden jumped up like that… if so is there any way to fix it?

(its not a connection problem, its just in steam) the mouse was a copperhead

 

thanks

try closing all programs that you man normaly have ruinniong and retry.

then try your old mouse.

 

what happens, any better/worse?

[enough]

nope nothing… same ping even with the old mouse, i guess i could uninstall the mouse and see what happens

 

uninstalling didn’t work either….

 

im stuck

Reset your cable/dsl modem.

I don’t know whats causing it but I’m getting really high latency as well on western carolina on June 5 and June 6. Since we are both in greenville, sc it must have to do with that. Its not your mouse. Sorry i didn’t reply to your text sooner btw, phone ran out of battery and i couldn’t find my charger

Yah ping is not caused by your mouse. Check your computer

 

 

1. Do you have d/l programs like limewire, bearshare, bittorrent?

2. Is anyone sharing your internet?

3. Are you sure your not infected with spyware etc?

 

Let us know!

its cool now, turns out it was just the area was a bad spot for some reason like toad said…. just happened to coincide with the new mouse…

 

thanks for the help!

I’m still having ping of 200+ form greenville, sc on a cable connection. Does anyone know why this is?

[Kuros]

Doesn’t make any sense. Major city wouldn’t be piping through another major city (Cullowhee goes to Atlanta and then out). I would call the cable company or do a trace route. Go to run and then type “cmd” and press enter (no quotes). Then type “tracert gaming.wcu.edu” again with no quotes. This will tell you where all you have to go to get to WCU.

Could be his ISP is having a router problem or the receiving ends router for that pipe could be down and its having to route around a weird way to make connection.

i did the trace….

 

it was going through atlanta and ashville, this must be a new thing though because i usually have ping in the 20s or 30s and now its up around the 300s…

 

its more than one person in the area having the problem, so i think its the cable company not our routers, ive reset them a few times, nothing helps

I didn’t mean your routers specifically, I meant the ones that the cable/isp service uses.

When I had that trouble with the school system I ran, I called up and complained and it turned out to be a router had failed and they didn’t know it. They swapped it out and all was happy in the world.

 

You may give that a try?

It appears whatever the problem was got fixed. I just checked my latency on the server and I was back to around normal at 50-75. Thanks for the advice.
