You have NOTHING to complain about on that ping and traceroute. It looks pretty much spot on what it should be.

OH NO! One hop and 11ms increase!!!

Yes, it's going to fluctuate, but my point that I was making that a 7ms increase from 1 IP to another is negligible and not noticeable in games. And no one cares about Nintendo 64 emulators online...that's just stupid.

Yes, pings vary greatly between in-game, where stuff is actually happening, compared to pinging a server list. Please, do us all a favor and go learn something about networking. May save us all a lot of time trying to explain something to you, that you probably can't comprehend anyway.

3 things would show otherwise.

1. Verizon FIOS is affected by a similar issue.
2. Trace routes and pings show otherwise. Different protocol, no ports involved, same issue.
3. Routers mid path don't usually check the source or destination port and that is where the changes in lantecy is happening.

Use PingPlotter and reverse traces to pinpoint WHERE the increase is happening.

The IP adress mentioned is in Ashburn, VA - on the east coast. You aren't going to get anything better then about 70ms on that, simply because of the physical distance.

I am pinging from Los Angeles area.

Do a ping on ucla.edu and see what you get. It should be 25 to 30ms, which is NORMAL for the LA area, if you are IN the LA area.

On the topic at hand: Latency from one point to another is only affected by the ROUTE your packet takes, not by the IP address. Now, it is very possible that the new IP addresses take a different route to get to your destination, but that isn't to say the route won't change.

Oh no! Your ping is a bit over 30! Sorry to say, but you really can't see the difference between those 10ms or less.

if it's jumping around all over the place you get kicked out for desynching or temporarily ban from the server

No, I'll give you a perfect example of where it's higher in-game. Counter-Strike: Source. Your actual ping varies greatly than what the score board actually says. Server side, it's higher.

I doubt this ping was jumping. But you obviously didn't listen to what I said punker. What I said was that you can't tell the difference between 18-23ms and 30ms. You really can't. I didn't say anything about it jumping at all. And you need to keep in mind, pings aren't always going to be constant. There's routing involved, and many other factors involved. Him changing his IP address was such a tiny small problem. OH NO! 7ms higher! Big freaking deal. Again, you can't even tell the difference between that.

And guaranteed, your ping is probably higher than that while in-game, as opposed to just pinging a server list.

you must have a very old computer if that happions

said by Reinvent3d:

Oh no! Your ping is a bit over 30! Sorry to say, but you really can't see the difference between those 10ms or less.

Makes me mad that my 10M connection now has the same ping as my 1.5M dsl connection I had a couple of months ago.

Bandwidth has little bearing on latency.

ping went down some, but not like before =/. Do you guys think I can get my ping back to normal if I keep renewing?

Try this link to see if your new IP is better identified -
»ip-address.cc/

There have been other SoCal rr customers who have posted in this forum recently that they were moved to the 98 block as well. It took some sites a while before they were ID'd properly - :)

There are also Verizon FIOS customers with the SAME complaint about the "new" 98 block IPs they've received. It's not particular to TWC/RR.

The NEW IP RANGE SUCKS ass

THE PING TIME IS 50% HIGHER then the old ip range

to LA the old ip range is 15ms to 19ms

NEW IP RANGE 30 to 35ms includes huge LAG spikes upto 800ms

it also affects download and upload speeds to many sites

even if you do get a GOOD working ip the LAG SPIKES ARE THERE

MacLeech posted : It's a different IP block not properly ID'd by outside geo sites which is why your closest speedtest site is said to be Kansas.

More that likely the return routing is probably taking a different path back to you which is why the ping is slightly higher.

There's nothing to do if it's working fine for you.

If it's really a problem, change the MAC address of the device connected to the modem and reset the modem to get a new IP.
