My ping today is unbearable (from 40ms to 120ms same server)

for some reason from yesterday to today my ping is extremely high and it's not placebo numbers either, it really is the ping to the server I checked every server and it only gets worse, from 120 to 180. I am canadian east but for some reason I have this high of ping when my usual is 40 on east NA virginia servers. What happened? Is there a real fix?

What ISP do you have? Also could you traceroute 192.207.0.1? Feel free to DM it to me. We're in the process of making some network changes, so we gotta chase down some ISPs to connect up to.

currently using Starlink and this upcoming monday I plan on swapping to Fibre sent you the tracert in dm if there's anything I can do to lower this I would love it as soon as possible (also maybe while i'm talking to a dev can we add canada servers or even just new york? :val_Hampter: it'll be worse when it comes to EU / apac smurfs since the ping will also be better for them but it'll be awesome for me thank you for your time )

So, I only really work in networking (routers, firewalls) and ddos protection, not really in where servers are placed :Phoenix_Sad:. But I can tell you this, keep making noise, keep chats going on about it. Even if the devs who make those decisions don't reply, they read.

What's your take on peekers advantage because riot so far is going with the narrative that it doesn't exist while pros and higher elo players know it does while also sometimes abusing it like when I queue europe around 120-130ping I do have around 8-10 frames to shoot someone first before it's humanly possible to react do you think eventually ranked will get locked to players only being able to queue up on 80-90pingMAX servers to just remove the cross region smurfing problem entirely usually on virginia you'll see a lot of turkish 3 stacks using it because they're good players that can always land the shot within that advantage, before selling the accounts or typing their boosting services after the game sorry for all this but it feels rare for a human rioter to see what I say
