Substantial gain in latency

[Winkeh]

Latency Issues​

Hi. So my IGN is 8letters and I played the server for over 2 years now.

Recently, there has been a sudden gain in the amount of ping that I get from the server. A pretty drastic change from 180ms to 300+ms. There has been no change in the WiFi I use or the location from which I am connecting. I also ran a speed test on Ookla and I connected to the Netherlands with around 200ms. Either way, there is no logical reason I can come up with that I somehow messed up my own ping and I was wondering if the server has done any changes that might've caused this or is there anything I can do/you can do to revert to the old latency amount.

Playing with that latency is very difficult, especially since I PvP and people are constantly bullying me over my connection. I sincerely hope something can be done for this to improve. If not, I still thank you for your attention.

It would be worse if the host were NA or not EU.

Good Luck :)

U play with WiFi on Ethernet?
I recommend using Ethernet
But the server has not made changes

Alright, I'll try Ethernet, thanks for the advice.

Maybe an outdated driver. Try this:
(Windows 10)

1) Open start (searchbar)
2) Search for "Device manager" (Apparaatbeheer)
3) Click on the little arrow left of the "Network adaptors" branch
4) Choose the network (usually the top one)
5) Right click it and pick "Update driver"
6) A screen should open. Click on "Search automatically for updated driver software"
7) Enjoy.
