It's getting on my nerves now SOE. 40MB/s line and for a month now, I cant play the game due to over 1 million ping in any decent fight and about 10 000+ anywhere else. Notice time for resources is negative due to over 1 million ping (a new world record no doubt)...
Where in SA? I'm jhb on 2mb line, TI getting normal 200ms'ish, had some lag spikes over last couple of days, but nothing above 1sec Gief tracert, isp, etc and lets find the problem
I'm in cape town, also 2 megs line, but no problems in other games... I play on emerald (too late to change now) tracert: Tracing route to 199.108.194.38 over a maximum of 30 hops 1 1 ms <1 ms 1 ms 192.168.0.1 2 15 ms 7 ms 8 ms 105-236-249-65-esr-lo.mtnbusiness.co.za [105.236.249.65] 3 10 ms 9 ms 17 ms 41.181.201.94 4 31 ms 34 ms 25 ms tb-dca-2.za--qux-a.za.mtnbusiness.net [41.181.184.28] 5 10 ms 19 ms 17 ms compj-cpt-1.mtnns.net [196.44.18.2] 6 184 ms 159 ms 245 ms ls-cr-2.uk--tb-cr-1.za.mtnns.net [196.44.31.113] 7 229 ms 169 ms 163 ms am-cr-1.nl--ls-cr-2.uk-a.mtnns.net [196.44.31.183] 8 183 ms 166 ms 170 ms am-tpr-1.nl--am-cr-1.nl-a.mtn.net [209.212.111.141] 9 181 ms 189 ms 161 ms xe-4-1-0.edge5.Amsterdam1.Level3.net [212.72.41.89] 10 * 236 ms 236 ms vl-3602-ve-226.csw2.Amsterdam1.Level3.net [4.69.162.149] 11 237 ms 257 ms 284 ms ae-59-224.ebr2.Amsterdam1.Level3.net [4.69.153.213] 12 239 ms 259 ms * ae-48-48.ebr2.London1.Level3.net [4.69.143.82] 13 240 ms 252 ms 237 ms ae-41-41.ebr1.NewYork1.Level3.net [4.69.137.66] 14 284 ms 243 ms 238 ms ae-46-46.ebr1.NewYork2.Level3.net [4.69.201.42] 15 236 ms 267 ms 253 ms ae-39-39.ebr2.Washington1.Level3.net [4.69.201.89] 16 303 ms 237 ms 237 ms ae-62-62.csw1.Washington1.Level3.net [4.69.134.146] 17 251 ms * 235 ms ae-1-60.edge1.Washington4.Level3.net [4.69.149.15] 18 235 ms 275 ms 280 ms SONY-ONLINE.edge1.Washington4.Level3.net [4.53.112.6] 19 SONY-ONLINE.edge1.Washington4.Level3.net [4.53.112.6] reports: Destination host unreachable.

Eish yarr, you bouncing from one side of the planet to the other and then across to the other-other ... wish we had enough zars for a local server. Is there no way they will look kindly on your troubles and transfer your account to eu? Also, 200ish ms on your trace to US is brilliant... thats my average to eu
Just to add, have you tried other isps? Not sure what sort of throttling and priority mtndsl has. Several offer free trials, afrihost for example has a 1gig free monthly data option I use when TI is playing up. Maybe try some others out and see if you still get the problems.
