yo
the other day i was at the aura servers to play an inter, and when i connected i had 115 ping to them. I checked to see if i was lagging in TS and on other servers, but there my ping was fine. so we switched to another server to play. A day passed and i went on aura again, and my ping was fine (iirc). Then when i came to aura again today, everywhere my ping was fine, except on aura where i had 115 ping again.
does anyone know what might be the issue?

Nope but it's normal for Aura. My average ping to Europe is 120, but sometimes I get 500-700 ping on Aura

It was on the 1.1 but:

Our ping was anormal and it was like we had over 300 ping at least (not playable at all) so we switched to another server.

Ah I remember this :D
fundog hosted that server from his house, it was incredibly laggy. I remember complaining about the fact that it wasn't hosted from a datacenter and he said something about him having fiber optic internet like it made some kind of a difference. I was getting about 43-50 ping (moving) there, which is incredibly high from the UK to a country in mainland europe (EDIT: what my ping in switzerland SHOULD look like - ok the link is broken, it was 24ms).
As for aura, idk where they are hosted (I think in Paris) but my ping there is fine, usually 13ms. However I feel very noticeable hitdrops there, gibbed.me is literally twice as good even though I have about 140 ping there (uk bob still #1 for hitreg tho). I think perhaps it could be something to do with the VPS company, since I've flushed my dns/ip cache multiple times and still have the hitreg issues. You could also try to ping your own router via the console, if you're getting <1ms as a result then the problem isn't on your end.

Are you sure it was in his house? Because he has such an high ping for a house-hosted server (over 10) and also, other FD's has pretty good pings on 'his' server while we had very bad ones, and when we switched to the other server, FD's ping didn't change that much when ours greatly decreased.
EDIT: Fundog's server wasn't the only one with this problem, I remember some loki's or idis' server had the same kind of bug, but only with me and a few French players.

Surely something has changed.
Always at the end of each game my ping goes up 400% and then normalizes .. This did not happen previously.
I have absurd lag spikes in BoB and Aura servers.
150 to 350 and tto 600 for about 5 seconds .. After return to normal .. happens every 2 minutes.
:(

Maybe it's a bug or pj problem

He told me once that it was in his house, yeah - but I don't actually know for sure where it was hosted. I remember Milandrag and Gazda got about 35 ping from Slovenia. On the other hand, I remember Milandrag got 150 ping to uk.mysick.tk 8 and 9, but not 7. That sounds like it's more of a personal issue for him though. either way, weird

The intermission is also the time for ladder's servers to upload all the informations needed from the server to the ladder (not only demos), it may lags because of that. But this bugs only happen to me on ladder servers.

Australians pointed this out years ago. Pings for us raised by heaps when 1.1 came out.

Try to perform a traceroute to aura.woop.us and paste the result to us.

I can't ping the IP of the seventh hop, getting 100% packet loss. Unless you've edited the IP in the console and I've been trying to send packets to a non-existent dataserver. Either way it seems like that's a prominent latency-adding issue. You could try flushing your DNS cache if you haven't done so already. If things get super bad, you could try resetting your TCP/IP stack. I would suggest only doing the latter as a last resort though.
Something I will say is that your first hop is abnormally high too, I'm getting <1ms as a result instead of 5-14ms. Try pinging your router and see what number comes up.
EDIT: Also, I believe AC uses UDP for packet transmission, so not 100% sure the TCP/IP solution will work, but it might be worth a try if nothing else works.
