This has been happening for a week now. In battlefield 4, for example I had to get a new modem and it still does it. North American servers are usually 60-100. That's insane! My internet used to be much more low. That ping isn't true, anyways. Whenever I join a server I am 500 ping. I know the usual "Connect to servers more close" but 500 ping is ridiculous! That's the equivalent of being across the globe! Also, my download speed is like 30 kb/s, which was no where NEAR that slow! I tried to download Nvidia drivers and it took an hour.

I just don't understand. I am connected to WiFi. Yes I know Time Warner Cable is crap. Why am I getting such SLOOOOOW speeds and high pings, even though the tests shows extremely normal? Is it my Wifi Adapter? Please help, I keep getting kicked from games.

Here's what I'm talking about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbDWtEWhtvY

too many things to consider such as bot net attacks, plus since the last year or so of net nuetrality talks every one is breaking neutrality . your ISP's network is on it's own and that's not saying much. retaliation has been against high network users in degrading their connections, shipping their traffic all over the world either by the ISP or the backbone cable carriers, not to mention the high user and ddos attacks going into your games servers or on that company's network....

between the chinese, the russians and the pissy gamers who ddos over some patch change and the botters it's too much to keep up on all the time.
p.s. almost all those speed test sites are paid to show good results and most ISP.s pay to have a clear direct connection to those sites to snow their customers and potential customers.

i've been having the same problems that have steadily been getting worse no matter what city or isp i am in all over the usa. it's a pay to play world where the people who pay the most win.
