Latency Test

Post by Derrick »

We're looking at options for a better datacenter for the shard (again) hopefully to better serve California, Australia and other problem areas, and hopefully while having minimal or positive effect of European latency as well.
If you are able, please ping, or tracert these IP's from the command line and let me know which was best.
A post saying which you voted for, and where you are from would be helpful too.

Thanks!
To test wrote: Open a command prompt.
  • Click on the "Start" button.
  • Select "Run". A window will open with a text box.
  • Type cmd in the text box.
  • Simple ping: With the command prompt open, type ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
  • Advanced Trace Route: With the command prompt open, type tracert xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Tracert is a command to measure the response of each hop in a network path. Your connection to any one server will require multiple "hops" between other servers and networking components. The fewer number of hops, the better. Most connections to a server on the Internet will include at least a dozen hops.

If for whatever reason you have trouble running a tracert through command prompt (my cmd prompt has been ruined due to viruses...) you can try using UO's own ping and tracer program:

easy and simple to use. You are able to copy the whole result by dropping down the "Edit" menu.

64.34.160.92
Ping is about 100ms

67.212.163.50
Ping is about 70ms

72.51.32.76
Ping is about 42ms

66.226.72.172
Ping is about 40ms

I ping'd all of them 3 times and took the average....

I'm in seattle wa.

EDIT: Now obviously I voted for the 72.51.32.76 and the 66.226.72.172, but any one of these servers gives me on avg a better ping then what I currently get (avg about 130)...

From Central Europe - Slovenia

64.34.160.92 ~130ms

67.212.163.50 ~130ms

72.51.32.76 this one is just weird it's very inconsistent all the way from ~40 to ~400ms, it's not my connection, has to be them or something along the way screwing with it

66.226.72.172 ~180ms
