👀 , If I can get some info from you we can take a look on our end to see if we see anything 1. When did you notice this start happening? 2. What general area are you playing from? 3. Who's your ISP?

1. Not exactly sure but a couple of weeks ago. It started happening quite recently. I even reset my pc and all but nothing. 2. Sweden. All servers get bad ping when this happens 3. Sandnet .

Lemme check with one of the network engineers if they're looking at Sandnet, they've got a big ole list right now. The engineers in Ireland have signed off and the engineers in Sydney should be getting on in a few. @IceyBird That's SandNet by Sandviken Energi right?
IceyBird
IceyBirdOP6mo ago
yes

Cool can you DM me a traceroute to 162.249.72.1? I'm not seeing anything out of the ordinary with SandNet as a whole, other people are averaging around 10ms to the Stockholm game servers. My guess is they might be sending you on a weird path. We can help reach out to them if they are.

Check ur dms

Gunna hand this one off to one of our network engineers. @Kenji-San noticed some packet loss for SandNet. He's going to start a chat with them.

@IceyBird I am in touch with Sandviken, trying to fix this one for you folks. that being said and while we wait I have not seen any packetloss since yesterday around 4pm via Sandviken. ping is pretty good so far about 9ms on Average to Stockholm servers. When Sandviken applies the fix we should have this more stable overall 🤞

@IceyBird hey, Sandvik havnt responded to any of our good 3 emails at this stage, so unfortunately there is very little we can do if they dont cooperate, I suggest your file a complain directly to their support. I see those spikes you are mentioning, not cool brother

that'll surely make them respond 💀 did you email them on the 24th? bc their support was closed on the 24th timezones 😵‍💫 i'll try to contact them, what should i tell them? anything special i have to mention?
Kenji-San
Kenji-San6mo ago
just file a complain saying that your ping is elevated towards Riot games servers in Europe, feel free to mention that Riot engineering mentioned that they are trying to reach them with zero replies

I've just started getting this. Started yesterday. I play in U.S. East Virginia servers. In lobbies I've seen other people complaining too. My ISP is xfinity. Not really a ping difference but I get random lag spikes every 5-30 seconds. Never had this happen before.

Can you please DM me your public IP and traceroute towards 162.249.75.1 I think your ISP made some recent changes to their routing, which resulted in this abomination of a ping :util_Cross:
やぞう
やぞう5mo ago
I did dm you
Kenji-San

^ The ISP is part of the group called YemenNet and I have reached out to them to see if we optimize the routes. Dont expect answer until next week though
