Problem is fixed! (At least on my end). Contacted support and they escalated the issue and I'm back down to normal pings. It's not as good as it used to be (135-140ms to this one particular server, up from 105-110ms), but infinitely better than 350-450ms. I suppose the 25-30ms increase is due to an extra hop going from Tampa to Miami, then to atlanta, instead of from Tampa, to Atlanta

It was fixed on my end as well after multiple calls and complaints. I was out of town for a while, but I am back to normal levels for that certain hop.

I want to give a shout-out to everyone on here, and especially Verizon's Tech Support. It took me escalating the issue and asking to talk to a supervisor a couple times, but I finally got in touch with someone who knew what they were talking about, and could understand the problem.

Thanks to everyone else who took the time to post on the forums, as I was able to use "Well there are other Verizon users on the forums having the same problem" line and they finally understood that it wasn't a problem with my router or the gamer server.

Happy Gaming!

YOU ARE POSTING IN A PEER TO PEER FORUM.

You will need to contact Verizon directly if you want any chance of getting them to look at this problem.

ps:  Curious as why you guys use a ip number address rather than a name?

because this is a server rented in france, not a website. i have contacted verizon multiple times over this issue and they are of no help. {edited for privacy}

Verizon (and most or ISPs) won't guarantee performance past their network.

And they can't always control which gateway traffic goes out (depends on where they get routing info).

Are you certain poor performance is within Verizon network?
