i live in eu
i had ping 100-200 with other eu players. now i have ping 400.
i tested my connection on speedtest.net and got 9mb/1mb both in eu and for eu-us connections
ping was 250 to san fransisco (other side of planet from me)
i did tracert http://pantheon.demigodthegame.com/ and got max 200 ping in there.
only thing that might have changed is a new router. i forwarded 6100-6200 ports for demigod, then used Portforward.com portchecker utility and it said UDP is open, but tcp is NOT. i made a rule to open them both. windows firewall is disabled. i disabled norton too and tried the utility which said that tcp is still closed.
might this affect my ping?
any ideas how i could open my tcp ports?
------SOLUTION-----
checked with my ISP and seems they had my tcp ports inaccessible from outside. after i asked them to forward all ports to me, my ping returned to normal and my DL speed increased by 2mb/s
