Routing to Chicago Servers higher than any others?

So recently while mid scrim with Sparkle Gang, my ping spiked to a constant 220 which is unusual since I haven't had ping issues in a long time. After restarting my router and comp, I started up TF2 and realized that it was only chicago servers I have 220 ping to, others my normal 15 ping. Anyone had this issue before?

Sounds like a routing issue, they might be sending you through a really weird hop. contact yr isp. Send them a tracert and as much info about your connection as you can

For the tracert, do this:
windows key + r
"cmd"
in the window "tracert [ip to any chicago server]"

this past season uber had absolutely terrible routing to chicago servers (constant 120 ping) while he lives in louisiana, but whenever we played on a colorado server he had less than 50 ping

we all chalked it up to terrible esea routing, but it's more than likely an isp thing

I'm having a similar problem. Again, only to Chicago and its anywhere between 160 to 220 ping. Dyl4n, what's you're ISP? You with one of the big two?

Okay so zilly and I share the exact same issue with the same provider. After watching my team scrim with a ringer my ping went down to 30, but I am unsure if it will raise again tomorrow. Maybe just a rogers issue?

Probably the cables rogers is using. I'm not with rogers, but my ISP is using roger cables. My ping took a while to get back down (mid pug), but it did eventually drop.
