emsgaming Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 Hello, Last week i currently got a new bandwidth provider in Chicago "Internap" !! One of the worlds best gaming providers. So I put up a server to test .. called FA Internap XPSave Forever ip 216.38.5.163:27960 Please let me know how it works out. Post your feed back 1 Quote
Chuckun Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 Will check out my ping & lago from the UK now. EDIT: Ping from UK in SPEC is stable 190ish with 3 other players and the rest omnis.. This isn't great but it isn't bad. Ping on a team with all bots (other 3 players are on axis, im on allies) is 250-280. Honest opinion; I get better on some of our other FA servers.. But perhaps the slow ping response time is somewhere between me and your BWP.. 1 Quote

But changing it to 100 changes nothing >.< Ping was stable, just fairly high from my location.. >.< Don't be disheartened though I will check when I go home too (same ISP as where I am now but slightly better connection IMO). Ultimately though, UK is not a great place for pings to US. Quote
emsgaming Posted October 22, 2011 Author Posted October 22, 2011 no i expect 150 too 250 ping times from uk, just i expect stable pings tho ... For Internap Routing i pay huge amounts of money for inap so i expect STABLE lol Quote

For Internap Routing i pay huge amounts of money for inap so i expect STABLE lol Well I can't say it's perfectly stable (ie: no more than 1-2ms change) but a small fluctuation in response time IS better than my overall experience when gaming. Usually it's pretty damn jumpy from here (on anything other than UK servers). EDIT: @Killar! - on a bad day my ping can be 800 (rare - or if someone else is streaming heavily). But on good days I don't go above 120. Quote
emsgaming Posted October 30, 2011 Author Posted October 30, 2011 has anyone else tried this server?? Quote
Administrators daredevil Posted October 30, 2011 Administrators Posted October 30, 2011 has anyone else tried this server?? me! Works like charm for me. All old lag is gone! Quote
stabak Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 OH sry forgot to post it :? server is not lagging on me, Ping is between 180 and 190 from Germany with 3-5 players and bunch of omnis Quote
ferkel Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) OH sry forgot to post it :? server is not lagging on me, Ping is between 180 and 190 from Germany with 3-5 players and bunch of omnis Same for me. Ping is high, but playable. Works fine for me, no lags. Btw: the server is located in chicago? Dare u said FA#2 is also located in chicago, right? Why I have than such a big ping difference? Fa#2 130-140 Internap 180-200 I thought hangs together with the distance? (I hope u understand me, this was to hard for me in english ) ferk Edited October 30, 2011 by ferkel Quote
nani* Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 My ping is high like always, but was stable and no lags at all so Quote

(I hope u understand me, this was to hard for me in english ) ferk Both are in Chicago but F|A #2 and F|A internap one are both on different network. I am not sure why your ping is high on Inter-nap one. Quote
