need help with ping

Very Hard Engage·3/21/2015, 4:18:53 PM·1 votes·668 views

its been like this for forever for me. never really cared because im mainly just casual. i want to do better in league and i really think my ping holds me back. i cant cs, and im often seriously late on my skill shots.

my ping is normally 80, (east coast), but i constantly spike to 220~270. it seems to be around 1/3rd the time i play, i have this spiked ping. it really hurts my laning phase and i miss so much cs because of it.

i do have wireless, its about 70ft away(cant be moved), no one else is on, nothing else is running, my antivirus doesn't touch league, i run on admin permission.

what else can i do to lower this god awful ping?

One thing that helped me out with lag was reducing like almost everything regarding visuals to the lowest possible setting in game. Also removed shadows etc. It got me from a constant 79 ping to a nice 38 ping. I still spike occasionally however so it isn't a game-changing tactic, but it helped.
