Am I the only one with a chaotic ping?

Everything was fine until a few days ago.

Why is my ping playing yoyo? Sometimes it can reach crazy values, tens of seconds.

No downloading, no TV, no other application running, no update in the background. I'm using Wi-Fi.

Any advice?

Had this problem when I was on cable. Fixed it by complaining to ISP till they finally ran a new line to my house. Also WiFi can cause this if your in a populated area or on a crowded network.

Lag spikes get so crazy my pc gets disconected from the internet, I don't know if it's just me.

I get this all the time as well, internet is perfectly stable besides that, on the us Texas server, makes the game nearly unplayable at times.

I think it's the servers. I've had it randomly happen for quite some time. Lots of times I'll be watching a stream at the same time just fine which makes me think its the servers. Sometimes it will just spike for a second, or will spike up and down, or will ramp up to huge delay for several seconds.

Probably a Problem with poe and your isp. Got the Same Problem in Germany with Telekom and poe at some days. Only way to fix it is by playing via vpn

I had the exact same problem. Everything else was working fine. Even tho it's probably not on your end, try to restart your Router. That fixed it for me.

The only times this happens to me is when there's an update I need to exit the game to download. They do a rolling update across the servers to avoid disconnecting you, but the performance degrades more and more you stay on the old shards.
