I have my own server rented from gameservers.com and it was fine at first, 30ms ping on 3mb copperline broadband aint so bad. But then one day it went up to 110+ up to 150 and i have no idea why. None of my friends have the problem on the server, and i can join lots of servers and get my normal 30ms to 50ms ping.
I went into command and did tracert 212.187.208.27 (my servers IP)
and it came up with this:
Any ideas ?
