Which country are you connecting from?

I dont think its a distance issue, its probably related to how the internet is being routed out of your country. There are "gamer" vpns that could enhance your ping but I think you'll always be a little frustrated with your connection

I'll be in the greater Bangkok area so do you think I'll be fine w upgraded service? Trying to decipher my internet plan right now, I think it's mid-tier. In Asia server I got 60fps and between 60-120 ping, def better but w faster speeds it should come down on all servers, hopefully. :cry:

*also have a vpn router I can try too

A VPN will not help you acheive lower ping.
Your ping -> vpn -> connection -> server ping

your ping -> server ping

vpn doesn't help, your ping will always play a part.

You can play diablo very comfortably on 40-60 ping and 20 download with 4 upload.

I'd imagine 8download and 1.5-2 upload would be minimum.
6 ping to a server would be great though.

Just moved to south east Asia from the US. Can I still duel with terrible ping in the Americas server or do I have to sell off my duelers :(

I've tried to make games in the Asia server and no one comes or they come with under-geared characters that get one-shot (gets old)
