High Ping

[Angelweave.1856]

So I play in Australia which means a good ping for me is around 200 (average is about 230), anyhow I started a PvP match just before and to people on my team were dc'ed and I regularly hit a ping in the 4,000's, average ping for the match was about 1,200.

 

Oh I know that Australia's NBN (national broadband network) is probably the worst 84billion dollars of tax payers money ever to be spent, but my ping to other sites even this forum is pretty good.

 

I though "oh well, first world problems" but it has happened a few time that around this time of the day/night (depending on where you live) the connection does not seem very solid, why is that does America have a black out every morning.
