my ping has went from 63 to 300-1000+ has been like this for the past 3 days now.

i have reset my modem/router and obvisouly disconnected and reconnected to internet though that really doesnt solve anything.
my firewall is up have ran ccleaner as to delete anything unneeded on this comp and fix anything that may be running to slow it.

any help suggestion to fix my ping?

As I have not seen any valuable replies posted, only +1's - I'll give you my opinion on what you could do.

What's the networks you're getting 63-300+ to? Let's try a few networks:

Start -> Run -> CMD -> ping 4.2.2.1 /t

Let that run for a few minutes and monitor the MS - if it's going up and down.

You could also try a few different networks, such as: d2jsp.org, google.com, comcast.net, etc.


To diagnose a problem within your network, you'll need to start limited/shutting down all connections, this includes wireless connections. Connect directly to your modem - this might require a modem restart to re-gain a new ghost mac address and you'll be presented with a newer IP address. Once this is achieved, ensure you don't have a lot of connections opened and or software that's downloading games/etc, IE: Steam, Torrent, etc.

Once this is achieved, you'll want to do a speedtest, preferably a location near you or one that's provided by your ISP (I don't know your ISP, but comcast has one directly here: speedtest.comcast.net, and speedtest.com is more common). Determine what you're paying for monthly on your speeds, if you're buying a 10.0 package, 20.0, 30.0, etc.

Once you have in mind of what your speeds *should* be - run the speedtest and compare results (ensure you do it to the NEAREST location as your ISP will recommend running a speedtest on their own servers). Let's give a example: If you have a 10.0 residential connection and you're getting a 6mb+ download, this is considered *getting service* - your ISP most likely will NOT help you. If you're getting anywhere below 6mb+, this is considered *NOT getting service*, where as your ISP will possibly send out a technician to further check signals and possibly switches in the home/equipment at your local node/hub.

Your ISP generally should check your signals while you're on the phone with them and should be able to pull a history of your signals ups and down transmissions/SNRatios, etc.

Conclusion: Limit/disable all connections to ensure no software is uploading and or downloading, connection made directly to the modem, ensuring your PC doesn't have a lot of connections opened with a quick netstat -a in command prompt, doing ping tests to 4.2.2.1 which is military level3 DNS servers and within other networks to see if you're still spiking, keeping in mind of your package you're buying monthly from the ISP - do a speedtest and compare results - finally: contact ISP


You'll want to contact ISP after you've tried majority of those steps to ensure it's nothing on your local network as usually majority of ISP's will walk you through those steps, and also the more simple ones of "restarting your modem and router, directly connecting to the modem". There's more options you could try, but these are more of the basics.

Good luck, I'd like to learn more about your network if you wouldn't mind so I could look into further details of examples I could give to you. I've had this problem before on our ISP's 10.0 and 20.0 service - It's simply not MY local network, but it's the equipment/massive load on our ISP's node resulting in lag spikes which are outrageous - I've since upgraded to 50.0 and I've never experienced a problem since it's better equipment on my ISP's end and nobody around here can afford it for the most part or have needs of it.

"Valuable" is not a direct insult nor flame as I was stating from the comments I've read was of no use whereas possibility of "lack of knowledge, wisdom".

Your attempt to de-frame me is not working since I have provided "valuable" information to the original poster - I do appreciate your wordings and in no shape nor form in ways have "insulted" a user directly.

You're not a Staff member of d2jsp so I'll redirect your comment with the utmost respect to my ignore list.

As I do not know specifics into his networking situation I cannot be assured if he's wireless or wired. I've experienced this problem and I had more in-depth knowledge of the situation rather then a "clean your cache" or "update your drivers". I've had a lot of call-ins about this similar issue as well - It's usually on the local end and or it's a signal issue. I express the little knowledge I have on this matter to help others that can use it to gain what little knowledge I have in attempts into fixing a problem. I don't where any insults have been made, however. As I've suggested in my previous post, I implied he should connect directly to his modem to start the process and debugging his network to see if it's a issue with his router he has specified he had - this would by-pass a wireless connection/card update. Internet browsing history is not going to result in having a high latency.

To acknowledge any post, it's considered as a plus one into that users post count, as this one will be. It's not a flame, it's merely more commonly used in my books as: of not valuable information

I'll state again, valuable is not a direct flame nor insult, to define "valuable": of considerable use, service, or importance - I lack to see that from previous posts, it might be the multitudes of "plus 1's" I've seen that are not in attention nor reflect to this specific users problem from little information about his network I've acknowledged.

If you're insulted I'd suggest posting a reasonable and valuable answer for a solution, this is General Help - I'm open for any discussion and do not believe I know what's best, just as from experience I have suggestions. You can be humble if you wish about others might be insulted, however it's a invalid argument and it's merely (not mearly) my opinion on the matter.

Good comment, thanks!
