GIVE HAWAII THEIR OWN SERVER

MilkyCookie··4 votes·1,277 views

Since the server move I've been dealing with 100-300 ping. Sometimes even 3000! My Wi-Fi is good and really strong but I guess it's just the damn server move. I really wish rito would invest in stationing another HQ on the Big Island or Oahu. Maui doesn't sound bad either. Oceania server gives me constant 230 ping so that doesn't help. Please RITO PLEASE! DO IT FOR US HAWAIIANS/JAPANESE/FILIPINOS/MEXICANS that live here! (PS lots of Korean tourists in Oahu.) Ahri But Riot this would really help us out.

Um, there's not enough people in Hawaii to support a server. I just went on the JP server when I was in Oahu

Just make a Jp account. I remember it being less than 200, which is definitely enough to play

While you are far out of the way, have you considered an Ethernet connection instead of Wifi? It may help speed things up a bit.

Never tried but I will soon. Thank you for your suggestion!

Ethernet won't help it. It's an issue of distance to the actual servers

It may not, but it's worth a shot. Wired connections tend to be faster, so while it may not completely remedy the problem, it may help.

Using Ethernet would improve packet loss and jitter, but not your consistent ping. You're trying to remedy a totally different problem
