Ping up by 7?

Gall··1 votes·386 views

This might just be my paranoia talking, but ever since net neutrality was repealed my ping has gone from a steady 42 to a fluctuating 47-52, with rare but noticeable spikes to ~90ms every few games for a few seconds.

It doesn't sound like much but it has kind of bothered me.

Anyone else encounter anything similar? I have TWC (now Spectrum) as my ISP.

Probably my paranoia as well, but ever since net neutrality was repealed my ping always spikes up to 200-9000 and my internet always cuts out what feels like every other day for like 40mins at a time

I don't think the net neutrality repeal could have anything to do with it. Although the vote was passed in favor of removing it, entire states have been suing, preventing it from actually going through.

Interesting. I don't keep up with it but it definitely sounds like a fun battle between state and federal

Ping fluctuation is normal and unavoidable.

I am also getting a LOT of ping fluctuation. I used to have a steady 32-33 ping. Now it keeps jumping from 32 to 37 all game long and the network logs from the Riot folder come out with much worse results than the ones from January. I think Riot did something that fucked up the ping because my ISP is fine. I have Optimum btw.
