Network Latency Issue

Is there something wrong with the game servers atm? Been noticing today that my ping has gone from 40ish to 160ish. It's not just me either, few guildies from the same area as me (socal) are all seeing the same ping spike throughout the day.
Yeah fucking it's doing it right now while I'm doing fucking uber aztiri the fuck GGG -.-

- In the US

Can't fucking do this place =/ while having a fucking 180- spikes to 800 ping.

Yea it's pretty bad atm. Beyond league + laggy servers= bad news.
I'm not aware of any problems with the servers but we'll let you know if this is confirmed. If the latency issue is restricted to users in California this could indicate a problem at the ISP level or other third party infrastructure. A WinMTR report might shed some light on where the disruption is occurring.

Not sure what issue they are having but for Arizona cox cable internet, it is fine (except for main site failure, which may be normal).

can you please use winmtr instead? ping and traceroute by themselves aren't nearly as useful.
My piety battle caused me to die once because my skills wouldn't work and it lagged out.

If I go back into the piety area, its 180+ms again. Something in the piety area is causing fram lag and high pings.

22 packets is WAY too short to get any reasonable idea on the overall network conditions, but that alone looks like a problem.. either between you and your ISP, or with the ISP itself.

The first trace is starting to lose packets inside of the ISP where as the second trace is losing packets between you and your ISP. This packet loss can account for latency spikes as it takes longer for the packets measuring latency to be returned when they're being dropped.

Reboot your modem and try again. If you still have issues, you'll likely need to contact your ISP.
