recently (3 days ago) I was getting unusual ping to a central server in a game i play regularly. Usually from my west coast location I get around 70 something ping to the central servers, but that number jumped up 20 to 30 ping unexpectedly, and has been that way consistently since. while trouble shooting (rebooting and checking for suspicious process) I went to check the game to see if the ping had changed -- it hadn't, but I did notice that I was instead getting my usual 70 something ping to all east coast servers, and in reflection my ping to east coast in this game is usually 20 to 30ping more than what i get to central. Oddly enough ping to west coast has stayed the same, and from asking around in game I've yet to find anyone else with a similar issue.
What could explain this? As it says in the title i really don't know where to put this, so if a better place exists, please let me know.
EDIT: i have made my exact ping vague in accordance with "Don't share ping information." not sure if this is what that means, but if being vague is necessary, then that has been done.
